Hello,

if solaris is still interested, this adapter is ready to be sent.
Otherwise, Amigo-Mexicano that is, more or less, second in line.

Postage to Mexico, with tracking, is about 12-13 Euro; to Germany, less, about 6-8 Eur.
If less cost, i will send refund.

Cheers

Hello,

about improvement on speed on ram-access, with this device, i have spooked about 'setramsey'. It won't work; there is speedRamsey, but it needs Ramsey rev G (from A4000): it works with 60ns simm and there is an improvement of 10% on speed of the computer. Anyway this adapter is for A3000D, that is equipped with a different revision of Ramsey. You need to check compatibility with DMac.
On my A3000D there is a Ramsey G, from an unknow A4000D: i will do test and post here results.

Cheers
Stefano

Hello,

i have installed 'SpeedRamsey' (it is on AMINET). Look at the pictures: the new setup requires 60ns memory SIMM.

Values before...

no_speed_sysinfo.jpg

...and after...

speed_ramsey.jpg

speed_sysinfo.jpg

On sysInfo the comparison is done with an A3000 with the fastest ZIP parts.

Remember, 'Ramsey' from Amiga 4000 is needed (rev G), because rev D doesn't this function...and now you can say 'goodbye' to the ZIP sticks.

I ask to the users that has declared interest, at least, to declare his decision to leave this sale.

Thanks in advance

Hello,

i have done two new adapters. They look very well, with a semi-transparent look! Good for the new owners!...and, there is another different thing...watch the pictures!

I ask to the users of this board, if they have declared interest in the past, at least to declare to leave this sale.

Another important thing: tell me if you are in needing of a strenght angled simm socket (to use on the original case of the A3000D), or if a vertical one is ok.

Thanks in advance.

Price is 40 Eur each + postage (about 7 Eur inside Europe).

Regards
Stefano

Still interested in one adapter for A3000D with support for 16MB! PM to follow.
 
Hello,

'armitage' you are first in line. I will send PM with infos about cost of the postage.

Another adapter is for sale.

Regards
Stefano
 
Hello,

the buyer can specify if the adapter will go in a A3000D inside a PC tower: in this case the adapter will be sent with a simm socket not angled, but vertical, if not a problem!

One adapter is still for sale.

Regards
Stefano
 
Hello,

received payment from 'armitage'! The adapter pictured will be sent ASAP.

Another one is on sale: you can specify if you are in need of a solution that fit on a A3000D case, or not!

This adapter has a semi-transparent look! ...And look strong enough for your A3000D!

Cheers

Looking forward to upgrading my RAM! I did have a couple questions:

1) Is there anything I should look for (or avoid) when buying a 16MB SIMM for the adapter?

2) Once the adapter is installed, do you recommend I remove my Z2 8MB expansion card? Will it hurt performance to leave it in since it's not a Z3 card?

Thanks!
