What is this floppy power connector? picture?

Anyway I suspect memory transmission error. It's very perculiar that only every n:th bit gets corrupted. Perhaps some PCB trace is dirty such that a capacitance has developed?

AmigaOne is a PowerPC/Hyperion-OS thing. Not 68xxx with AmigaOS.

Write an appliction that tickle bit-by-bit and see how it works. Might be that the memory works alright, but the graphics chips reads wrong.

It helps by showing that up to 125 MHz should work?

Pushing the D/A (or RAM) above certain bitrates can make them go gibberish.

Anyway if you lack programming skills paint some pictures with vertical lines of different base colors + white (R-G-B-White). Make a slide show of it if you can. Also open one picture in a window you can move horizontal and vertical to see what happends.

@560SL, Perhaps ESD damage?
