Merlin 4MB Zorro II/III Graphics Card
Picasso Graphics



Recently bought this from Amibay (from this thread: https://www.amibay.com/showthread.php?71660-A2630-turbo-(boxed)-A2065-Merlin-GFX-card-A2088XT-Turbo)

However, its surplus to requirements as i also bought a Retina Z2 at the same time, so rather than let this just gather dust, I am now letting it go.

More details can be seen here: http://amiga.resource.cx/exp/merlin

It has not had any mods done too it (see above links, as several mods can be done to card) but is fully working

Am not really bothered in either to be honest, both were impulse buys, so ill keep one and sell/swap the other, just made sense to keep the cheaper one seen as am not using either!!!!
 
€ is " right alt key & 4" :D

I thought Picasso was better but only have A1200.

from another website.
Picasso96 (P96) and Cybergraphics (CGX) are RTG (RetargeTable Graphics) systems for Workbench. Most software that has been written for Workbench use can then be used with your graphics card. If the card is not P96/CGX compatible then it will only work with software written especially for that board; this will limit its use a lot.

alt and 4 on my MacBook just does a harp symbol, but not improtannt

:) So we all agree this is a good card.
 
MODS, please can you change thread from "SWAP" to "SALE", could you also change title from "Zorro II" to "Zorro II/III"
Thanks :)

Karl Werner Riedel still offers suports for a Merlin. All fixes cost about 30€ as a DIY product. It not a difficult to do.

Merlin offers some speed up over more common Picasso II / GVP Spectrum. With Zorro II Quake plays 13fps vs. 11 FPS of GVP Spectrum. (Spectrum and Picasso II are using same chip)
 
Have PM Mackbw, if I don't get a reply Wrangler you'll be next. Thanks :)
