Great job you did. Steven do the same with his power supply and it works great. Greetings from Steven from the Netherlands

I bought Arymanx's 4000D version and some of the 2000 ATX adapters and laser cut adapter plates. The quality is top notch.

Thanks Dr Chris. Another Video 3 months ago 😉 Message from the future…You do get to use the new PSU 👍🏻 What I learnt today….I am freaking not going anywhere near making a PSU 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Cheers 🍻

I built 3 of those and very well know the pain you endured Chris. Szymon's work is top notch. I also got an A3000T PSU adapter from him. Easier to build as it uses a standard ATX PSU. I highly recommend that one as well.

I was thinking that looked like Szymon's handiwork just before you said it. 😂 If you think the PSU case was nice you should see his custom made big box Amiga cases, they're works of art!

Never saw a real Amiga 3000, except in videos. Those machines cost a lot today. Power supplies are one of the most important parts of the machine, if not THE most important. Therefore, I think it is essential, to test this components first, before even thinking about turning such a machine on. And power supplies are also a very important part of electrical engineering. I would say kings-class. In this video you demonstrated your competence again. And as always - I learned something new (I need a connector crimping set : ) ). Thanks :)

I'm might just plug mine in after its been in the garage for a few years , and flip it on just to test your theory.

Good luck. I hope everything works out for you. If not, Dr. Chris can fix it.

That A3000 looks painful to do, I would need a prewired and modular style type. Its always nice to power on and there's no loss of magic smoke.

Well your the king. Im just a peasant. This was intended to be a power supply for one of my units, but another one ended up needing the last power supply I had and these cables turned down too too short and I’m too lazy to extend them.

That is a really nice stainless RGB PSU. Szymon make good stuff. I have one of his A4000 recreation cases, and want one of his A3000 cases he made for Stefan & ACILL as I have no original systems!

they are replacable. the internal switch is just a 4 pole/wire standard button. screw mounted.

Dear Dr.Chris, What is a tick signal? and what is it for? (I hope I learn something) LOL

@Numfuddle 3 ай бұрын

The tick signal is the 50 Hz/60 Hz mains frequency converted to digital TTL levels. The mains frequency is very accurate and the Amigas use it as a clock signal for the system clock - hence tick signal - among other things. You can configure some Amigas so that they use VSync instead and you can buy „Tick“-generator boards and adapters you can use if you have a non-original power supply like a modern ATX PSU.

@@ChrisEdwardsRestoration it works for all kinds of clocks from radio alarm clocks to the one in your oven, to the old-ish huge clocks used at train stations and public squares so it’s actually quite clever to use it as an accurate „tick“ for a computer. I guess 32 kHz crystal oscillators might have still been more expensive at that time? At least that’s the only explanation I could think of why most real time clock circuits with crystal oscillators (except the 1200(?) and 500+) came with expansion cards like the expansion bay memory expansions.
