News on the X1000!

[J-Golden]

Please guys, let's all take a break and walk away for a bit.  Maybe, go get a pint. :pint:

But Franko this is Amigan English. Reality is different here in Amiga world :insane:

In this world Grammar really is spelt as Grammer.

P.S. did you know that in Amiga World dog is really spelt cat?   :kitty:

No, no please not. Let's all just sit back with a pint and enjoy the cock fight

Out of curiosity, what are the practical benefits of the X1000 compared to your usual sam board, when running OS4.1?

Are there any applications that can take advantage of the extra hardware power?

No intention to troll, just asking (yes, I am new to this).

any/all XMOS apps plus any other area where extra speed would be required i.e 3D rendering, video applications etc.
also running old 68k apps/games with E-UAE (with integrated solutions like glUAE or RunInUAE) would drastically benefit from the extra speed

One is a viable product, the other one is vapor.

Which XMOS Application? There's none.
But extra cpu power is always welcome, for browsing, video, raytracing, compiling, UAE whatever. The more the better. But question remains: for what price. And taking the price into account the X1000... Well, it's up to each one¹ to either rob a bank, sell your stocks or take a mortage on the house.

Of those which do you find to be of the most benefit on your X1000?

I think 3D rendering times and modern 3d gaming would be the most noticable difference for me comparing to my old Samflex@800..of course glUAE will run even smoother on the X1000 as well with the extra speed:) though I must admit the XMOS & Xorro slots are the X factor for me as the possibilities are so endless.

I would love to emulate the Atari Falcon at 100% speed on the X1000. Currently, Hatari performs slow on the microAmigaOne. Not as slow as the MegaDrive Emulator on Amiga 4000, some games are playable on Hatari.

Don't worry kurkosdr, if you don't intend to troll there are always others who are willing...

*You are* being sarcastic now, right?

huh..someone still forcing you to read this thread again:angry:..i thought you said nothing of interest to you here blah blah blah but yet you have such a 'passion' for any thread that is X1000 related

[wawrzon]

in case of xorro slots the only thing i wonder is who will come up with guarantee or replacement, when people start to fry they hardware with their homebrew expansion cards or put a pcie card ito that slot by oversight. i believe the xorro connector was a pcie one, wasntit?

[lsmart]

Excuse me but you are inventing your own theories.

Not quite. I read in Amiga Future that while Hyperion needed more time to work on the software, AEON decided to fix a few small layout problems and offer better functionality and performance. It further mentions that Hyperion got the first five of the rev 2 boards in february of 2011.

So the CPU is out of production and A-eon is still revising the motherboard?
