| I can't resist without an Amiga any longer! It's only 8 months but I really want one again.
Like the topic suggests, the question is AmigaOne 500 or AmigaOne x1000?
Just in this moment I got the idea to go for the 460 and wait for the Cyrus. However I'm not sure if I can justify to buy a x1000 and Cyrus..
What do you guys think?

I have a sam460ex + radeon HD 6450. You should by an X1000 => fastest than a Sam for all you'll do ! (surf web with OWB, Whdload games with RuninUAE and JIT etc etc... ). I'm waiting now for an X5000. If I could return back in the past, I would by an X1000 fore sure ... |

I'm inclined to agree but the price difference is huge. I'm also waiting for the X5000 now and hoping the price is more competitive, but even if price is better I think 3D and multicore support will be needed to really persuade me._________________ gtmooya's blog |

Imho was only a price problem...
If you can afford an X1000 without much problem buy it! ATM was the fastest AmigaOS4.x machine around(probably also faster than X5000)!
But if you(like me and many other guys around world these days) have money problems, if you really cant resist without an OS4.x capable machine any more, buy the 460cr or a good used machine(like a Peg2/G4 or A1XE/G4) and keep money away for your life matters ;)
Just my 2 cents. _________________ Simone"Tuxedo"Monsignori, Perugia, ITALY. |

| I have been extremily hapy because I bought X1000! Ofcourse I can't compare it with Sam because have not Sam but I think I have now machine that is usable many many years (and "many" years mean MANY years in Amiga world

I don't know anyone who has the 460cr in stock. (I'm sure somebody will correct me if I'm wrong)
The X1000 is in stock with Amigakit. How soon do you want it? Last edited by TiredofLife on 08-Jan-2015 at 07:52 PM.

You are right, I will go for the X1000 then. I had been in touch with Enrico time back and my decision in favour for the Sam was influenced by that too, but as it seems they do not get my mails or can't reply. I'll go for the X1000
@all Thanks for all your comments! I'll place the order this WE |

I'm already putting the stuff in the basket on your website! And was just trying to look for a way to contact you; Would you recommend the Radeon 5450 or 6670? I'd prefer one without a fan. |

I saw the boards appeared to be there a few days ago. Doubted a bit because I saw the 460cr version of the AmigaOne 500 wasn't available. I see today it is though. Only the 1.10ghz version but still. Not a bad price at £600._________________ If your nose runs and your feet smell, you're upside down. |

I really want the X1000 but it is just too expensive for me ... so I have placed and order for SAM 460cr to upgrade my microA1. Can't wait! Yay. From 256MB with built in 32MB Radeon to 2GB plus separate 1GB Radeon card should feel really nice!!!
But, if you have the money, X1000 is the go in my opinion.

| Well I'm the new owner of a brand new Amigaone 500 and quite impressed with it so far 😊 given the choice between paying £775 like I paid for it or the possibility of shelling out over £2,000 for the X1000 machine it was a bit of a no brainer.....
