$63 euro's for an EC, have you got money to burn??

You should have got a FULL MC68060RC50, with the Mask 1E41J.

These overclock to ANY speed you care to throw at them. They are totally cool at 50MHz.

With a heatsink and fan, they overclock to 90/100MHz in other systems which have SDRAM (wont overclock past 70/80MHz on a blizzard due to low speed DRAM).

i wonder how can someone check the cpu if it is of that type.

It's not. :cry: All amiga accelerators were made after this CPU was made.

is it safe general speaking to overclock a 060 cpu no matter if the Mask isn't the 1E41J?

Dunno about safe, but it will get hot, not recommended in a desktop situation.
