Blizzard 1260 confusion

They're the same card basically, just different chips.

You're not alone!

Did they not realised that in 15 years time some unsuspecting idiot like myself would shell out a small fortune for one thinking they were actually getting a 1260 68060 accelerator! :roflmao:

That does stink. I bet the seller just sold it as a 1260 board and didn't mention what processor it had, too.

I'd say £150 is a fair price for the card.

..and if you're looking for some competing quotes on the work, Per Gunnar is supposed to be a complete badass at '040 to '060 swaps: http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=41468&p=453288

I have a card that was supposed to have been upgraded by him and the work looks good to me.
