Actually I use just WinUAE  :-( my last Amiga was A500 modified....RAM CPU FD....but it is too ancient & slow.

I wait from Jurassic time for AmigaONE...but I'm bored, I lost my patience, so i'm searching on eBay for A3000!!!

Was my dream an A3000, and now I try to realize my dream  :-D

I've get a A3640 accelerator card  

 :-P  yeah, I preapare A3000 without A3000  :-P

In these days, I searching in forum for Trip&Tricks about a good deal with A3000...


Thanks for the welcome!!!

Welcome to Amiga.org.  I would have recommended an A1200 tower over an A3000 but if the A3000 is your dream you'll be in fine shape.  Just be sure to get a graphics card for it since you'll be on the Enhanced ChipSet.

Ok SamuraiCrow, thanks for you advice: advices are always good things  ;-)

I saw on ebay that its hard get A3000, and I think very hard get a fine A3000.

I'll search for it, but I don't dislike for a good A1200, here, in Europe there are a lot of A1200  :-)

About graphic card for A3000, what do you mean?
I wish connect my 19" CRT monitor directly to A3000, isn't a good idea?

Thanks  :-)

You can easily connect a 19" without a graphic card to the a3000  :-)
The only problem is that you wont get high res and and loads of colours like with a graphic card.

A graphics card can allow 24-bit color and faster 3d graphics plotting than the Amiga chipset.  The Amiga graphics on-board are good for games and contain some forms of graphics acceleration that most computers don't have.  They are slow by todays standards and you only get maximum color graphics in low resolution on the A3000.

The A1200 has better color than the A3000 and the AGA graphics chips are twice as fast as the A3000 since the A3000 doesn't use fast-page memory.  Also it will probably be easier in the future to get an expansion board for the A1200 such as the Mediator.  It is usually cheaper to buy PC-style cards to plug into the Mediator than it is to find Zorro 3 or Zorro 2 cards to plug into an A3000.

Still, an A3000 is faster than an A500/2000 since it has 32-bit memory access in the graphics chips but not as fast as an A1200/4000's AGA chipset.

Very well, now its all more clear in my mind  ;-)

I saw A1200 working and yeah, nothing in common about graphics respect to my old A500....and so A3000.
So A3000 just fatser then A500/A2000, but same numbers of color.

Thanks for your explanation, Amiga world is nice, but Amiga community is wonderful!  :-)

I hope that one day, I could help other Amigans as you and other guy  :-)
