Thanks a lot for the lovely comment it means a lot to me :)

about my same story ! , bought cd32 first in September 1993, sold to a Amigafan in 1994 and bought again 3 years ago ! awesome times :)

Me: Decides to build one. /searches for processor Me: Gives up

Hahah good spot dunno why I put 2009

@@Djformula AB3D2 was also released in 1996... you captioned it as 1993 - pre Doom ! :)

The 68060 was never in anything Amiga originally, I say an FPGA accelerator is just as valid solution as an 68060, and much more valid of a solution than PPC accelerators. Even the Vampire doesn't stop using the original Chip Ram, Original custom chips and etc, it leaves everything intact, just adds a faster processor, Fast RAM and RTG graphics, Ethernet solution and depending on model an IDE controller. everything outside the 68020 in the case of the CD32/A1200 is still intact and working.

@@roygillotti4615 I thought the latest firmware for the Vampire bypasses the ECS/AGA chipset and does it in FPGA?

@@uberdude2555 That isn't the case, the latest v2 firmware doesn't do that, The lastest is gold 2.12 and it's still just RTG graphics and relies on the original chipsets. there was a gold 3 alpha that was used only for development test for the making of V4 Stand-alone core before it was released... it's not really even in a usable state.

@@uberdude2555 Also that said, I also doubt a fully realized AGA core will actually happen for the V2 Vampire, it just involves breaking too much functionality. I believe the current state is what we will have with incremental updates to what we have for the V2.

@@roygillotti4615 Well that peaks my interest. I remember Majsta saying a few years ago during a computer show, that his vampire cards could already technically stand alone if a simple clock signal was generated, and he saw the original graphics chipset eventually becoming redundant. I hope they don't bypass the AGA chipset otherwise the Amiga becomes a glorified I/O device. My primary concern with the Vampire team is in my opinion they have become very greedy, making people wait many months for hardware. I remember when they tripled the price of the Vampire 600 and cited it was because they wanted them professionally manufactured. All these years later and these cards are still in high demand but still being slowly trickled out, seemingly to keep prices high so the secondhand marketplace isn't saturated. I understand Stephen Leary is considering making his own FPGA 060 drop-in replacement, I hope him every success, this will enable him and the Warp1200 team to be able to better compete with Vampire on different pricing points and less waiting around. The Warp1200 if it had an FPGA would be a better card than the Vampire in my opinion the use of an ARM co processor if further developed can easily outperform a responsible price FPGA doing 68k, it offers potential for graphics card acceleration, and the automatic switching between RTG and AGA is a very nice feature as already done on other high end boards like ZZ9000 graphics card.

Hmmm… AFAIK, neither Phase5 nor DCE made turbocards for the A500 (I mean, cards with CPU different from the 68000, like 020, 030 and so on), but for A1200 and A4000 (maybe usable in A3000). Maybe you talknig about GVP turbocards, those attached to the side of the A500. The only thing I remember they made similar to a turbocard was a fastmem card with a faster 68000@14MHz, to be attached to the original 7Mhz CPU socket, but I don't think it can compete with a A1200. Well, maybe the RAM made the difference…

Thanks :)

.... in addition Genetic Species was from 1998 not 2009! Soz just wanted to clarify.

Thanks for the idea! will try that in a second part

thanks! You can get the genetic species intro if you run a small prog called 'Joinanim' in the GS directory :)

Apparently CARMAGEDDON is another Amiga game that is awesome as it's a lot like GTA 3 ('geddon came out before GTA3)

Really? I always thought it was one of the most common CD32 games along with Roadkill for some reason

I see it as essentially the same, 68060 wasn't in anything originally sold by Commodore. The Vampire is a bit better as it's using an motorolla 68k based architecture, just modernized. However the PPC based accelerators are completely different animal... Well that is how I rate the purity of it all...

@@roygillotti4615 The 68060 was used by Amiga Technologies in the A4000T, that was a product designed by Commodore, if they had survived a few more months it would have been their flagship processor as well.

@@uberdude2555 The A4000T released by official Commodore had the 68040, The 68060 was only introduced in the post-Commodore model so Escom and then Quikpak once they took over.

@@roygillotti4615 Yea Commodore are said to to have made approximately 200 A4000T's before going bankrupt in April 94, these featured the 68040 presumably because that was still the best available processor at the time, the 68060 was only released sometime in 94 and would have required some time for Amiga libraries to be developed. I think it's fair to conclude Commodore would have adopted the 68060 for their A4000 range, and in practice it was still officially the A4000 flagship processor as the story of that machine continued until Escom also went under.

Oh ok, so it's not only me then! My 1260/50 feels faster/smoother... Very strange!

ahhh this is 2001 I just did a typo lol

It’s something to do with my sound card when capturing. I have had it in other videos and recordings. On the cd32 itself it sounds fine

Raspberry pi is super easy blitterstudio.com/amiberry/

A500 then the a1200 which I put into a tower with a 040 card... Why do you ask, have you one to sell me 😁

WinUAE is by far the best option if you aren't getting a real Amiga. And since you've had two before... setting it up should be easy for you as well :)

@@Djformula Thanks! :)

They are available now, any 68060 revision is fine, I bought mine recently on eBay which came with an LC060 for about 260 Euro.
