"New" amiga hardware

[amiman99]

I see that a lot of work progressed since the start of the project. I can't wait to see the final results.
I want to see Doom running in 64 colors on A500/A600.

In the future I would like to see A3000/A4000 version of this accelerator using the fastport adaptor. I believe that this speed is more suitable for big box Amigas.

And this reminds me, I wonder how Shapeshifter would perform on this accelerator?

If you get enough horsepower you'll also be able to run Sam & Max on an A500 in 64 colors

If it contain 68882 core, we could play AmiQuake!

I also wonder if you could play TFX on it too??

I think the little Vampire can do even better results if the CPU is properly setup.

What do you think about this value?

Phone me now!!!

Ha!  I remember contacting Nic with that quote.  I was the first person to see the message (legitimately) and he wanted to immediately know what CPU I was using.  It was a prototype of the X-Calibur add-on for an overclocked A3640 in an A4000.

I wonder what comment is after "Phone me now!!!"

I always envied those with 060s, the fastest I ever got was overclocked 040 to 33MHz.
but now, that speed could be affordable to everyone.

Still not cheap if trying to do it with original hardware.  Emulation, on the other hand, sure, but I'm a bit of a purist.  

Makes me happy to run SysInfo on my A2000 and see it's faster than an A4000, haha.  

I'm not into Amiga emulation, sure I have WinUAE and Amiga Forever installed on my PC, but it's not the same, there is something missing.
I mostly use emulation for testing purposes, like using CD32 emulation to see if my game works w/o burning bunch of disks.

Sysinfo reports "Chip Speed vs A600" at 7.20 on my A1200 030 50MHz.
Is it because it's AGA?

I would love to see 3D rendering times with software like Vista, Cinema 4D, Lightwave, etc. This will show real world speed compared to stock machines.
