Vampire 600?

[psxphill]

But frankly I think an A500 equipped with this card could at some point be 100% quivalent to an A4000.

I'm interested in what you mean by that. If you replace paula agnus and denise then lots of things become possible, although at this point the mother board is just being used for it's connectors.

These models are planned too.

I'd like to see a version for the CD32 since nobody has made an accelerator/Ram board for these since DCE's SX32, which cost a huge amount of money when they do turn up.

The planned release of the Core is August.
And we so far all looks good that we will be able to launch as planned.

.

Should I bother to re-flash to V 0.1 core or wait for Phoenix? In other words will you release it sooner or later? Also, i'm willing to beta test phoenix core for you I run software alot of amigans dont run like music and graphics apps.

Sounds good.
Maybe you like to visit our IRC channel?
We can chat about beta-tester options there.

I agree, A500 with an ACA500 and ACA1200 card. Makes the A500 like an A1200 without the AGA ofcourse.

So an A500 with AGA would be cool.

Lets dream for a second and give the A500
* a good amount of memory  128 MB ?
* a fast CPU = 200 Mips?
* a big storage = 16 GB ?
* network interface
* AGA
* hi/truecolor

Then you have a dream machine :-D

Actually I would prefer some small box with a separate keyboard attached and some serious specifications inside that box.

A3000 comes close though.

The CD32 is small and has an external keyboard port.

Hey big gun. I'll try to catch up on the irc when are you guys there? I have a couple of things to discuss from my testing with .1 and 1.0 cores as well.

The CD32 is small and has an external keyboard port.

And it has AGA, a cheap connector for the accelerator and goes for a reasonable price. I already made the argument to Gunnar that the CD32 would make a good cheap AGA test platform. The connectors are cheap for the 500/1000/2000/CDTV also and there are way more of these Amigas sitting around that could be given new life.

There is a low end CD32 expansion in the works over on EAB by the way:

Think German time for IRC. It's not exactly convenient for people in the states.

There is some information on the Vampire CPU cores in the "Amiga FPGA Accelerator Owners Club" social group over on EAB.

You may have to sign up for the social group in community -> social groups.

I assume the CD32 has the same dimensions as the predecessor, the "CD". Makes one think about perhaps a 19" rack mounted Amiga Probably completely inconvenient for the typical usage.. but there's something about it

(Amiga CD32 dimensions seems hard to come by..??)

Which is why discussion forums are so much better. Aside from that people tend to think more before hitting enter in such type of communication.

Thanks.  I'd missed that.

The CD32 motherboard is very small.  Roughly 14.5 x 27 cm and the case dimensions aren't much bigger.

There are very few ppl running CD32 setups. In north america they are very rare. ideal target to me is 500/2000 as there are so many worldwide. It would be awesome to have an a3000 with AGA! (or better my a600 w/ aga lol)

[freqmax]

Let's have a 200 MHz 68060 Amiga in 19" rack with separate keyboard. And of course AGA, Paula etc..

The only really gotcha is that new Amiga style keyboards are hard to find new..

Hi someone requested new core with TG68.C MC68000 based, but with more memory, it is on my site so please test it.

It is build in just 2 hours, all from my head because I lost most of my codes. Core is not so fast but according to my test stable.
I m sorry for waiting but this this year was not so nice for me and that's why I was away. But I ll explain everything on my site when I found the time.

Also in this version (0.2) memory allocation is strange but I don't want to start talking about that because I afraid that this will bring new discussion between me and BigGun hahahhahaa
