Looking for a CPU upgrade on my A4000D
« on: December 22, 2005, 05:58:08 PM »
Hi guys,

I am looking for some sort of CPU upgrade for my A4000D. I have the stock 3640 040 board right now.
I use my Amiga for mostly Video editing with the Video Toaster 4000 Flyer system installed. I have also used alot of Lightwave that is of course included.
Here is my problem I want something that will boost the speed of the rendering as well as give me more memory for when I run  projects in the switcher. Un fortunantly for me I just do not have the cash to aford to buy one off eBay so I would like to see if somone wants to do a trade? I have at least four items that I can let go of.
1) a Video Toster 4000 card in great condition in original box manual and 4.2 software.
2) an Opalvision 24bit graphics card with the software downloaded and installed on a CDrom.
3) an amiga 3000T flopy drive in great working condition.
4) amiga 3.0 roms, 2.04 roms and 2.05 workbench install flopies.

If anyone is willing to trade to help my cause I would be very greatful hopfuly someone in my area can help. (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada) :crazy:

Damn thats going to be tough as a 4000 accelerator like a Warp Engine 4040 or a Cyberstor 060 board is worth your right arm on ebay these days, lol  Maybe some nice person up in canada can help you out, I dont have a spare one card, I use mine daily.  Anyone in the xmas spirit?  :P

You might get away with a trade for a Quaddoubler... But I doubt anyone would be willing to part with a Cyberstorm for less than US$500.

Mac Mini 1.5GHz, that might run MorphOS someday, when the fools who own it come to the realization that 30 minutes just isn\'t enough time to play with it enough to decide whether or not you like it enough to cough up $200.

 - Someone please design SOME kind of DIY accelerator for the A4000. :D -

Yep I saw "new" ones at SoftHut for 900. I have a CSPPC but honestly I cannot discern the speed difference between 060 and PPC.

Thats what I say, $500US is way over inflated. I have seen many  go for around $300 Thats like the one guy in Calgary Alberta who is selling a top of the line one for $1500 on eBay. He is dreaming. :-o

That unit is the PPC. They go for more.
The 060 MK2 is worth 250-450 US

Sorry, I should have said a CSPPC @ US$500+

@Effy - That is a pretty good deal tho.
