Board arrived today, don`t have my A600 yet in Japan to test it but it looks like some solid work. Many thanks! Feedback left :)
Hi kipper, my A600 board arrived today.
I can't test it because my Amiga is 350km far away from me but i'll leave a positive feedback as soon as i'll send this message.
Thanks for all. :)
Hi Kipper2k,
This sounds very interesting and I would love to upgrade my A500 (and maybe 600 too). Just a few questions first, relating to my A500:
Will the 4mb or 8mb upgrade work with a rom switcher or with a dual rom kickstart?
Will the 4mb or 8mb upgrade cause any problem with games compatibility?
Is it possible to have a switch that disable the memory (like I currently use on my trapdoor 512k expansion for some games)?
Can this run on any kickstart version (most importantly 1.2, 1.3, 2.04, 3.1)?
Any problems running HXC Floppy emulator with the extra ram?
My A500 is an 6A motherboard revision.
If Kipper or anyone else can help me here that would be great. I am looking to have the most compatible solution for gaming ON A 500 while gaining speed and ease of use.

Will the 4mb or 8mb upgrade cause any problem with games compatibility? ----- earlier games, probably, but not too many, later games not so much
Is it possible to have a switch that disable the memory (like I currently use on my trapdoor 512k expansion for some games)? --------- i think so, i haven't had a chance to play... funny thing is, i have boards that i have made that simply refuse to be recognised so a good bit of troubleshooting may lead to the answer.
Can this run on any kickstart version (most importantly 1.2, 1.3, 2.04, 3.1)? Yes to all.
Any problems running HXC Floppy emulator with the extra ram?... unknown, probably not....
@thread...
I am out of service as such for 3 weeks as i am required for jury duty so if you want something, let me kow before end of Saturday Oct 6th and i'll try to get it done before i am gone for a while.
Thanks to all for your support :smile:
Hey Bwian, I weceiwed whe bwoard twoday.
Ahem...
Received an unit today. Funny thing is the unit wasn't supposed to be delivered to me.:lol:
No problem, I have here the board where it will be installed into (capacitor maintenance). The real buyer (my friend) will received everything tested. :)
Win-win situation.
Feedback in route.
Hi Kipper,
Any chance for me to order an 8mb+A1000 cpu adaptor?
Thanks!
