Blizzard PPC + G-rex PCI 1200
« on: September 20, 2005, 09:04:19 PM »
Is it possible to use this combination with my BPPC that is revision 0 ? If not, why not?

There's no simple answer, see this thread.

The answer is: maybe.
You have to try and see. Officially, only revision 2 BPPC works with Grex, however some people claim to have working BPPC + Grex setups where PPC is revision 0.

Well I have BVision to my BPPC and it works perfectly. A G-rex would be a nice and cheap upgrade.

You need to send your card to DCE, marked FAO Thomas Dellert, and he will have the card upgraded to Rev 2.  I don't remember how much the fee is though.

I'm not sure if I wanna do that, maybe I'll never see the card again :-?

Hasn't DCE dropped support for the classical Amigas?
