phase5 Blizzard PPC 603e+/330 MHz, 060, 256 MB
Specification:
• MPC603RRX300LC (603e/300 MHz) overclocked to 330 MHz (this one makes over 400 MIPS)
• MC68060RC50 latest revision 6 (currently running at 50 MHz for BVision, but this card allows OC up to 66 MHz which was tested with G-Rex and Mediator)
• 256 MB RAM (two identical slim 128 MB 50ns SIMM 72 modules)
• Fast SCSI2 controller (NCR 53C710)
• oscillator for 68k is socketted, frequency can be easily changed
• Blizzard is rev 0
• New silent and more effective PPC fan
Included:
• Box, manual, diskette, SCSI cable
• Optional SCSI hardisk 50 pin or 68 pin if needed and terminator of course
History:
• Upgraded 3 years ago by well known guru ;o)
• During that time Blizzard was working in my A1200 with G-Rex, Mediator and BVision very well
Price: 890 EUR (+shipping +paypal fees)
NOW possible variations:
exchange 060 rev1 instead rev6 => 50 EUR less (the rev1 CPU is absolutely nice and clean like new)
remove 060 (empty 68k socket) => 100 EUR less
remove 128 MB SIMM => 40 EUR less or both SIMMs will be 80 EUR less (I can replace each 128 MB SIMM by 32 MB SIMM for FREE)
Examples of Blizzard configuration:
BPPC@330, 256 MB, 060 rev 1 => 840 EUR
BPPC@330, 128 MB, 060 rev 1 => 800 EUR
BPPC@330, (64 MB), 060 rev 1 => 760 EUR
BPPC@330, (64 MB), no 68k => 710 EUR
phase5 BlizzardVision PPC 8 MB -> SOLD
Specification:
• RTG graphics card and 3D accelerator powered by Permedia 2 by 3D Labs & Texas Instruments
• 230 MHz RAMDAC
• 145 MHz dot clock in 24 bit packed pixel modes, 100 MHz in 32 bit modes
• 25 MHz local PCI bus
• hardware accelerated rendering functions: z-buffering, gouraud shading, fogging, blending, antialiasing
• support for color space conversion, chroma keying, XY scaling
• 8 MB 64 bit wide SGRAM
Included:
• VGA cable
Price: 220 EUR (+shipping +paypal fees)
Photos of both running together:
Blizzard PPC early startup (it hac PCi menu, it is latest DCE firmware)
PCI menu recognizes BVision as Display controller
Blizzard PPC detail (MC68060 rev 6 is beautiful absolutely without any scratch)
SCSI 68pin disk connected using 50pin reduction
Amiga Early startup menu showing disks attached vie blizzppc device
BVision somewhere behind the cables in the tower
Workbench with WhichAmiga, Syspeed, Screenmode and Gears Warp3D
