How I made my 030 50 1200 tower clock @ 133Mhz

[adolescent]

Nice story.  A 030/133MHz would just barely outperform an 040/40Mhz and not even touch an 060/50MHz.  Now, an 060 at 100MHz with liquid cooling would be something to see.

If it was a Deringer cards (that only supply half the crystal clock to the CPU) I could be made to belive you where able to run the 030 at 66Mhz but for running it at 133Mhz and only applying extra cooling on the other bobs and bits on the card I say it's a fairytail.

oh boy...funny {bleep} this one :-)

Who cares about a 030?? I'm sitting here running Os4 Beta on a PegasosIII G5 prototype right now :-o

[rayt]

double post, sorry.. but I'm so excited :lol:

G5?  Sheesh, I have a G7.  It's so fast it processes infinite loops in nanoseconds.

AAACHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOO, Ohhh sorry folks I am allergic to bullss***

Actualy I have a ZX81 and I use the Z80 and this is attached on top of my 030 in such a way as I use instead of 40Mhz I now get the TRUE speed of 500Mhz.  Bye the way I use a rock crystal from the local salt mine and a lump of white coal as a heat exchanger for better results.

Honest I do.

I have an intel 4044 4-bit driven calculator clocked to 7.6 GHz so nerrr :-P

Bah that's nothing I overclocked my 2000's accelerator 040 to '166MHZ' using an old Pentium crystal. I can't use the ram on the board though, have to stick with an 8meg on the Zorro slot, that and a DKB megachip, which sucks cause then other stuff with RAM (like my Retina) won't run with the other 8megs installed.

But my Screamer board prototype from Newtek here outperforms it by a good margin.

I *had* and 030 at 60Mhz, and that was on a blizzard without a scsi kit, never tried the scsi kit but I got the impression it'd be flakey at that speed trying one.  The 030 its self never seemed hot, neither did anything else on the board but I knew it was pushing it.

Sold it on ebay, some lucky sod has that card now and I'm left looking for a big box.

Hi All,

Did once fit a 12Mhz 68000 in my old A500,
then rigged up a logic cct to double the clock
feed to the CPU 14Mhz ish.

The miggy ran fine , exactly twice as fast
but would not talk to the A590 (invalidated the disk)
but could format floppies at 880K *2, the standard
floppies were recognised as NDOS. :-D

[Holley]

Wasn't there a 'proper' hack to do that, but using an 010?

Anyway, there is a way to get an 030 to read as 133MHz - run a benchmark under UAE ;-)

Ok see I was just screwing around with this thing for kicks, I didn't really expect it to work but it was a 266Mhz oscillator and it still boots but everything is all fragged up because everythings outta sync. The major point of the entire discussion is anyone could box this refridgeration system up for probably $100 in parts and assembly, and develop a 68k accelerator to handle the speed, the only problem is dealing with the condensation. This little creature sitting on my workbench is a late night I couldn't sleep and had nothing better to do than tinker with something I knew little about just to see what happens, and the important thing is, the 030 didn't fry . If there is an actual person in this forum that knows how to clock the whole accelerator at a decent speed, maybe we can work this out.

The monkey hits the switch and it comes on but there are some problems, my mouse moves way too fast, I can't seem to figure how this happened any ideas?

Ha ha ha! This guy's trying to be a BoingBoss! (Or is it just meers coming back with improved grammar heh)

@iama

Meers was dyslexic man, give him a break.

I know, I know.

One needs to be able to joke about himself. I'm sure meers could, and I have nothing against meers.

Light hearted joke.
