Viper 520CD
« on: March 07, 2013, 07:37:29 AM »
I've been sorting through all my old computer stuff and came across my A500 accelerator. It is a Viper 520CD internal accelerator.

020 based, math co-pro, 8MB ram, Kickstart 3.0 and has IDE on board.

i'll probably never use it again and was wondering if it is worth selling.

I definitely is. It will likely fetch you a nice amount of money. Those are highly sought after.

I'm in Scotland. Going to set it up later and see if it still works. I think i remember it being a 68020 @ 16mhz. I'll let you know how I get on with it.

I'm spending too much time messing about with my old Amiga stuff. Forgot I had as much.

Amiga 500 - 0.5mb chip ram, 0.5mb fast
Amiga 500 - 1mb chip ram, 1mb fast
Amiga 1500 - ? chip ram, GVP scsi adapter with 8mb fast, 1GB HD, CD-Rom
Amiga 1200HD - Boxed, 8 MB fast, still looks new.
Amiga Rom Kernel Manuals.

More boxes to go through. Also have Commodore 128, MPS-801 printer.

Having way too much fun. Going to be up all night i think. :lol:

Got mixed up.

Heads swimming with all this stuff.

Mine is a Viper 520-33-CD, so I'm assuming it is 33Mhz

A bit hard to tell from the pic, does anybody with first-hand knowledge know if this will fit with the Indivision ECS?

*bump* for my last post. I'm considering bidding but not if it won't fit with the Indivision. Just curious if anyone knows, thanks! :)

Just curious.

What does that make one of these worth with 68882 and mega-memory board populated with 2 Meg? (like new)
