[EDIT] chaged the title a bit, the chip seems to still be marked RC50 but runns at 100mhz..(can't bother now, have some  work to finish...)
[2ndEDIT] It's an overcloked one with watercooling....
Pah..! :-x  Still, first time I've seen one...

Dead Hackers Society

Also the other thread in the forum on the same page  seems to indicate that this is a full 060!!

Guys, I'm surprised noone noticed this!!

....P.S. Maybe Downix was right in some old thread, I remember he said something like that...

Ok, I wanted to ask about it some while ago.. So, is it possible to change 040 from Blizzard cards to 060 (I've got a blizz040/40mhz, and writing on it says blizzard 1260) without any other upgrades. I mean without changing any chips on the turbo board?? Would that work??

/me hides somewhere deep..
The Power RangerZ uses Amiga, and You??

Hi red

ermm . . .take a look
HERE

The "new" E41J mask (1999) is a 50 Mhz XC68060 CPU overclockable until 100 Mhz with a water cooled system.

This is great, but we must consider that the CT60 has SDRAM ram module.

This is fantastic news if it can be adapted to existing Amiga accelerators. Some Atari users over at the linked site reported 142MIPS! I only get ~40 on my 060/50

Comparing MIPS results from two different programs is meaningless. The numbers are not compatible.

100MHz 060 is exactly 100% faster than 50MHz 060, so with your testapp you would get ~80 "MIPS".

Hi Jose

the CPU is a XC68060 50C, OC at 100 Mhz. . . nothing more.

With those E41J mask, SDRAM and a water-cooling system, the Atari CT60 can go at 100 Mhz.

A couple of years ago, i've read somewhere of a 2060 CPU card, clocked at 100 Mhz. (the CPU is on the market from 1999)

Just to add to what Piru wrote, your 50 MHz 060 can manage more than your benchmark indicates for any superscalar optimised code (as a lot of 060 optimised code often is).
int p; // A

Er... yes, you're right. Oh well. That's still quite a boost, though.

As I'm really bad with hardware...

Simply one question:

Does this mean we can get 100mHz in our classic amigas some day?

why make do with 100mhz on ancient hardware when you can have 800 (or even 933) on a lot newer tech. ( changed wording to appease the whingers).

Hi The_Editor

No software-drivers available ATM.

And my A1 will reach 1,25ghz :D
