I do agree that an RTG board would make things even better but how many folk actually own one


You could probably count them in the tens these days.

I've only ever owned an Apollo040 board but I've downloaded some Apollo060 SysSpeed test result from the net and comparing both the Blizzard and the Apollo there were no significant differences.


There weren't any in mine either. The major troubles were due to timing issues with some Apollos and things like the mediator PCI expansion board on some models of A1200. Also the scsi was a bit hinky for those half dozen people ever who bought that expansion for the Apollo.

But on it's own, the Apollo was a fine card.

Find it rather odd that you manged to get AIBB running on an 060 board as AIBB is not compatible with an 060 board, just launched it right now to check and am sitting here staring at the old bright orange software failure message ERROR 8000 000B... :confused:

Do you have a special version of AIBB ???


Lulz. Owned.

Also, aga in 8bit will always be slow, knock it down to 64 and it'll purr along nicely, even with an 040.
Blessed Be,
