060 upgrade!

[PG]

Well, im proud to say that i think i have everything needed if you have a A1200/040 turbocard and are thinking of upgrading to 060.
I also do repairs, upgrades of A1200 turbocards.
Please dont hesitate to contact me if you want help with a A1200 accelerator card.

No way...

Oh, come on..
If you have a 040 just upgrade it.

darksun9210: yeah, youre right, its not the easiest job to do.

nine3o: im located in Sweden and the price for a upgrade is 1250 SEK (Swedish Crowns) +shipping.

Countzero: im sorry, but i only have the parts and knowledge to upgrade A1200 040 turbocards.

This is a good question.
We are talking of old hardware and even though i have successfully upgraded many 040 cards by now there is always a risk involved.
Of course if your card dies after the upgrade i will try to make it up to you.
Currently i have no BPPC in stock but i could replace your BPPC with a 060 card instead.
Hopefully nothing goes wrong but then you at least have that guarantee.
Let me also tell you that i use professional tools, i have access to both hot-air and regular desoldering / soldering tools.

Why i cant give guarantees against intermittent faults is because they could just as well have nothing to do with the upgrade and very hard to find before doing the upgrade.
So there is no point in sending me a intermittent faulty card and hope to get it replaced with a working 060 card.. ;-)

MC68060RC50 with mask 1E41J (the cpu that i use) is very good for overclocking (with active cooling).
At least 60Mhz should be possible with your Blizzard but i have to admit, i have never tried overclocking with a Blizzard 1260 card...
But as long as you dont use a scsi kit it should be no problem, i think.

Well, i sure havent smoked the same thing that you has?
What do you know..
Maybe you should do some background checking before you open your mouth.

I NEVER recommend anyone tempted to upgrade a 040 board to do it if they dont have the skills needed.
However, i think there is a lot of skilled people on this forum, your not only insulting me but them also...

Even if you have the skills and tools needed you shouldnt upgrade your computer if there is a risk involved?
Where do you draw the line?
