Looking for a faster 040, currently have 040@25 (060 a possibility dependent on cost) for my A4000 desktop. Anything considered, memory & SCSI options would be good, let me know what you have
Next week I will meet with somebody who can do this. He need a MC68060 rev 6 and socket adapter (040->060). If we do that successfully I will report this fact here.
There's already a prototype adapter to convert 040-060, I've seen it used on a WarpEngine 040, I'd love one for mine! (060 @ 80mhz ) I think the drivers are experimental though.
Personally I wouldn't bother upgrading the A3640, the memory interface is crippled enough already, you want a processor board with local Fast Ram.
I had an A3640 with Quad Doubler, 50mhz 040, it was fun for proof of concept, good MIPS bit in real use it was much slower than my WarpEngine 040/40mhz, 3D Games really suffered. (Yes I had ZorRam, in fact 2x 128mb)
