The 6.2 motherboard is a good choice.  You did the wise thing and won't regret it.

Guess I'll start searching for a newer board then, and use my good old Dremel on the case to make it fit :)

could you simply desolder the composite jack off the board(assuming you don't need it) and make it look original in the case?

I have an Amiga 2000 rev. 4 with kickstart 1.2 and was planning on upgrading it with a SCSI HDD controller, kickstart 2.04 and an acelleratorboard (type 2630 or something like that) but after reading a little more, it looks like the rev. 4 board is no good..


Would you be able to check something for me on your A2000? When you run the SetClock command from a Workbench 1.2/1.3 disk, does it print a message like this:
  Warning: Clock is at old address
or
  Warning: clockchip found at $d80000
  arrange update of mainboard as soon as possible
