FS: BlizzardPPC 210MHz/060@66MHz (+BlizzardVisionPPC)

[drbrain]

Up for sale is a Blizzard PPC with 603e@210MHz + 68060@66Mhz (rev6). The card was upgraded by Stachu a year ago and originally had an 603e@160MHz+040@25
The card has 2x128MB for a total of 256MB memory. (Can be sold without memory -€40)

The card was tested today (April 10th 2013) in my A1200 and is working just fine. But due to age the card is sold as is.
See picture of the card at the bottom and a screenshot from today showing the card in action. Also a quick video shot today!

I have fetish for fans When I saw that fan rotating at high speed I was picturing and imagining the sound it is making and picturing that sound coming from the desktop case....I....I cannot help but grin! I did...I did grin...and what a grin at that. I wish I had that fan installed in my Apollo but the guy who sold the card for me had to put a heatsink only with no fan -_-. As if I wanted it to be quite  Personally I want to buy the whole thing...this is the ultimate setup...in fact I want to buy the entire Amiga 1200 with everything in it...because my current Amiga 1200's motherboard does not support PPC period...however...the price is just a bit too high. It is going to cost me at least 1.2k to afford this...sorry

Amazing card, although I'd only be after the ability to have 256MB of fast RAM. I've decided if I do go PowerPC it'll be an Amiga NG.

People who own a PPC Amiga like AmigaOS 4.x in modern PPC motherboard like SAM 440 tell me there is no benefit in owning the system and that it is the same as MorphOS and at the end they sell it because they are not getting anything out of it. Much like a door stop. So to have a PPC in Amiga classic is worse actually...we are better off in a full blown 100% super duper 68k card instead like blizzard 1260 or apollo.

Didn't really like MorphOS, but would like to have/try an Amiga OS 4.x system. For about the same price as the Apollo 060 card you can pickup a NG system.

Benefit that I see is that you can do everything you could do on your A1200 but a lot faster ;-) I guess it doesn't have the same soul perhaps?

Then again I can do all that on my UAE box, which by looking at it appears to be a NG Amiga without the PowerPC side. You wouldn't know it was a PC.

Anyway getting OT :-)

You are hijacking a "For Sale" thread to discuss merits of the PPC and OS 4.1; Don't do that!  Open a new thread in Discussions.

One of the main advantages according to me is the possibility to add a gfx-card to an A1200D, and of course 256MB RAM
The PPC is a nice bonus to offload the 68k with some tasks like datatypes and music.

On-topic again:
Updated the price!

[danbeaver]

That is still $914,

Good luck with your sale!
