Thanks pjhutch.
Could you give me some informations about the "disable" possibility and the fan's noise?

Now I'm asking to the person the speed of his Apollo... is it better than Blizzard 1230 even if should be a 25 or 33mhz model?

Thanks again!

Hi Golem, thank you too!  :-)

I admit... I'm very undecided!
Obviously I prefer the faster one but I hate the noise. So my question is... how strong is the noise?  :-P
Could I change the fun with an actual one? Is it a standard measure?

Thanks again!   :-D

Sorry... another question  :-D

If I can't disable the card during the boot, what type of games or programs could have problems?

Thanks again  :-P

Hi Lemmink!

I have already three Amigas: A500+, CDTV, CD32. I bought them between 1992 and 1995 and they're great for old generation games!

So, with my 1200 I want an "actual" system to run OS 3.9 and recent software. Taking in mind this, perhaps I have to buy the Apollo...

Many thanks again!

Karlos, after replacing original fun, did you get a silent and "not-stressing" computer?

Great!

So, if the seller will accept my offer for the Apollo, I'll change the fan.

Regarding the compatibility, I've checked the requirements of softwares I need... they should work.

Last question (sorry but I was out from Amiga world for too years...): I've visited the WHDload site. It looks a very nice program. Can you sure me that it work with Apollo?


THANKS!

I don't need SCSI controller, I've already the Elbox Power Flyer FastATA Mk.II with very fast IDE devices...

Thanks again...
