| Hmm,
Quote:
| This CPU card will fit in standard A1200 cases, but a towered system is recommended. |
I just may have to find out how well this CPU card will work with an RBM Onboard 1200 busboard and the associated Toaster and Flyer cards. The only problem I can see with my setup is that RBM's busboard makes the CPU card face the mounting plate, so I'd have to rig up an adapter to move the CPU card around to allow for a heatsink and fan.
This would give me another reason to take a serious look at porting the OpenToaster stuff.

| It's a stimulating thought to get one, but hell, when I bought my CSPPC, it was just as expensive as a complete peg/a1 is today (Ok, maybe cheaper than an A1). Any indication on much this baby is gonna cost? |

I don't know but I suspect it will be much cheaper than the uA1 or CSPPC.
What I want to know are the physical dimensions. Cheap PPC laptop anyone? |

| I'm glad I kept my #2 A4000D. Now I can see its fate, in a new tower, with a 400 MHz PPC and OS4.
Adam has great credentials - not only is he a betatester and groks the OS4 side, he has also had plenty of experience with the MAI boards and groks the HW side.

Me too. I've got 2 A3000's, so twice as tempting.Last edited by Herewegoagain on 23-Dec-2004 at 11:02 PM.

| Wow then It'll be better than the coldfire 
So I begin to understand why we see so much solutions at the same time...
It's really a good news for my A1200 because I'll upgrade him from HD200MB and nothing more to last PPC technology
Sure I'll buy it!!! |

| Hang on, did I just read correctly? Will this board fit in the standard A1200 case? |

| Mr. Hardware Computers will be carrying these accelerators when they are ready to ship. We will be working to insure that Video Toaster users will be able to use this long awaited product. Pricing should be better then the old days of the CSPPC costing from $1250-$750. I have been told pricing will be better then this.Imagine you system running on 512meg of ram with well over 4megs ram for gaphics and high speed udma 133 ide. The 4000 used much slower speeds.

Sounds like you have a cruddy power supply. I've noticed that most Amiga expansion towers, etc. that were made came by default with pretty cruddy PSUs. They may have had high wattages printed on them, but the ripple and levels of the voltages on the rails tended to be crap.
Amigas tend to be VERY picky about the stability of the power they're fed -- get a high quality Antec or Enermax power supply, modify it to work on your Amiga, and your system will probably boot without a hitch.
I was confounded by exactly the same problem as you when I towered my A4000 in an Elbox tower. The problem was entirely the PSU. Replacing it with a quality PSU with low-ripple rails that were on voltage (tuned the pots in it and checked with a multimeter) and it starts up every time. |
