Wanted: A500 Accelerator
« on: August 31, 2008, 10:44:03 AM »
I know they're extremely rare these days but that's the last thing I need for my A500 so if you have some 020 or 030 accelerator board you'd like to sell please let me know.

Yeah even M-Tec would be good as it would allow me to use Scalos and more WHDLoad games (some of them require 020 to run).
Also can you please let me know how much is card like that worth?

PS. I don't need (but is also welcome) memory expansion as I already have GVP A500-HD8+ and that's enough for my needs.

Yeah price was a rip off but I don't mind. My Amiga is now working 10 times faster than before and I'm really happy. The issue with RAM being disabled with processor is pretty obvious as it's real 32 bit Fast and 68000 can't address it. That gives an opportunity for FBlit to speed up intuition and graphics stuff even more as it makes system functions use 32 bit Fast instead of 16 bit Chip RAM...
