All the EC 060 chips I have bought were fake.  They were really FULL 100% working 68060 chips with full working MMU and FPU.

But I only bought 1.  I can say for a fact it was manufactured in the 1990s but I can't narrow it down any more than that.

I :knuddel: my 68060.  What a wonderful chip.

I do have the Radeon, I was trying out the AGA version of Quake 1, which suggested at least a 66mhz 060.  Quake2, I think suggested a 75mhz one.

I wish I could get glquake working on it, but from what I understand only the Voodoo is supported?

Is the FPGArcade out yet?  I was kind of looking into getting one, but last I looked, it was still in development.

1. The 060 card for FPGA arcade is not available for sale yet.

2. There is no PCI slot on the FPGA arcade so your Radeon will blow away the gfx performance of a FPGA Arcade forever and ever and ever and ever.

+ Your Radeon has massively more gfx ram than a FPGA Arcade.

FPGA arcade only has 64MB of gfx ram maximum.  You can add another 128MB of ram by buying the 060 daughtercard when it is available but that is it.  For a total ram of 192MB.  Your Radeon has more ram than that all by itself.


Blitting speed on Radeon is faster.
But...
The transfer speed, transferring gfx data from the CPU to the gfx card should be 3x to 4x faster on FPGA Replay than on your loaded deluxe Amiga Real Machine.

Remember when we were talking about transfer speed in another thread?  Well the guy who made the 060 card for FPGA Replay very nicely posted bustest results for me when I asked.  That is how I know its transfer speed is faster.  It uses more modern ramchips and so forth than our trusty old Classic Amigas.
