Apollo or Blizzard
« on: January 13, 2009, 12:38:48 AM »
Hi guys,
I have been trying to get hold of a blizzard IV but so far have only knocked up an apollo 030. will the later card be just as good for gaming, is there a visible difference in performance? and is an FPU a requirement for retro gaming?
cheers

Hi guys,
so if I want to play Total chaos as it should be played i need an 040 or 060 ? thats a big outlay of cash! I wouldn't mind but i read somewhere that 060's and 040's may have issues with retro games and not work? is this right or did i dream it? i dont mind spending on an 040 as i have given up smoking and drinking (health reasons and girlfriend reasons - that amount to one and the same) but dont want to buy something that will stop other games running.
thanx for your time guys

Hi guys,
no i havent tried the uae route yet, to be honest I havent got much experience with emulation on pc. I do emulate on my GP2x. I think i will give it a go on my pc, I have been toying with getting Amiga forever. Has anybody emulated Total Chaos yet? If its anything like getting emus running on my little korean friend get ready for some questions :)
