Dude, you know this 944 is not seen as a real Porsche because of the AUDI motor.
Keep your pants as is. :D


924, actually, and what a group of car snobs thinks counts for about nothing.

It was just as crappy as any other Porsche on the road, but handled better.

Franko,

You get 66 MIPS from a Blizzard 060/50MHz? I thought thay put out around 40!?

No, that's perfectly normal.
Under 40 value comes from Sysinfo, which is wrong and does not recognize correctly the 060.

They benchmark an incorrect 40Mips in Sysinfo because it only uses one of the 060's integer units.  If you benchmark with a program that correctly utilises the 060 you'll get 66Mips (Sysspeed is a good example)

i wonder *if* it was possible for a Bvision to operate @66Mhz PCI bus with a 250Mhz RamDac i wonder if there is a massive performance increase. iv got a feeling migration has already started and is awaiting last minuite modifcation to Blizzard PPC card or maybe it's already working.

such modification *may* possible need extra tracks added to BGA pads.

Well to put in 060 terms vs a 911 GT3 RS, that really handels good in corners and on a straight line and you just want to rev the engine for fun :roflmao:

I imagine many are just too dumbfounded to respond. Fascinating project - the RAM performance clearly blows away any classic Amiga accelerator ever made.

When I look at the CT60 page, it lists the speed of various processors...but they seem very high compared to what I have achieved on Amiga accelerator cards. I know that this is an Atari project, but why such a difference in speed, or are they measuring them differently?

Disagree with you totally here on my Blizz060/PPC under both OS3.1 & OS 3.5 PageStream, ImageFX, FinalWriter, and lots more besides run perfectly well WITHOUT AN RTG BOARD... :)

From a few threads that's running here tonight it looks like a lot of folk using 060 boards don't have them set up to take full advantage and squeeze every bit of speed out of their set ups... :)

Of course it could be because your using an Apollo and not a Blizzard as the Blizzard boards are way better than the Apollo ones... ;)


Ill help, got a blizzard 1260 too, patched the living daylights out of it, only one problem though, i use a tvtuner card and the gfx card in that box blew its caps ..... ..... gf7600gt no less... Dont forget tlsf! fscreen also drastically speeds stuff up.

Yeah, none of these values are consistent with amiga accelerators MIPS, but remember that M in MIPS stands for Meaningless.

I tried gfxroute a while back, didn't seem to work though and caused more problems than it was worth, think I'll just stick with FBlit and the other patches I use as they have been running perfectly stable for years now... :)

Be interested to hear just how you hooked up that TvTuner card and where you got it... :)
