Ask MikeJ what the slower ones are going for in China. Even the older RC revisions have an MMU, FPU and less bugs than any 68k fpga CPU yet.


They are really cheap - you can even can brand news ones for ~20USD.
Getting the latest mask set is Really tricky.

That's even cheaper than I thought :). A 50-60MHz 68060 is already a big improvement over what the average Amiga user is using. Supporting faster memory speeds and easier overclocking will make it faster than most of the old 68060@50MHz accelerators.

Yes, but they are older revisions and cannot be clocked up - and have bugs.
The E41J mask set are tricky to get at all (most are fakes) and price is negotiable.
I am taking a chip tester with me to screen locally.
