How much difference in performance is there between a 68030 clocked at 50MHZ w/ 12MB RAM compared to a 68040 clocked at 33MHZ with 32MB RAM?

In essence compare a RCS Fusion 40 to a GVP 030 Combo board upgraded to 030 50MHz.

Both to be installed an A2000 with KS and WB 3.1 with intentions of upgrading to 3.9.  And an Indivision ECS and a Mini Mega Chip.


I would go for the 040 for sure...  The extra ram won't hurt either.

Yes the 040 does run hotter compared to an 060, but all you need is a good heatsink.  I have an 040 at 40MHz with a big heatsink with no issues...
