BlizzardVision
« on: September 26, 2005, 07:19:59 PM »
I'm thinking of buying a BlizzardVision graphics card for the PPC in my Amiga 1200.
But I've only got the original plastic desktop chassi. So my question is this:

Does anyone know if the Blizzardvision card fits in the desktop chassi?

By looking at some pictures it looks as if it should fit, but I'm not really sure. And it doesn't really look like you can fit a heatsink if you have the card there. Or did I misunderstand it completely, and the card actually connects verticly?

Yes, it fits in the original Desktop. Just be aware of the heat and install a fan somewhere.

Here is good picture how it looks like:

The BVision does fit but it takes a lot of power so you will need a heavy duty power supply like the Goliath and in addition you will need a very good cooling system as the BVision PPC gets hot.
