Selling an ACT Apollo 1260 accelerator board for the Amiga 1200 computers.

On the card there is a full 68060RC50 CPU (rev 5), clocked at 66.667 MHz, RTC and the mod for 64MB of RAM using single SIMM slot.
A compatible SIMM module is part of the sale.

Additionally, I am providing 50 MHz and 60 MHz crystal oscillators, so you can decide by yourself about the CPU clock frequency.
The oscillator is in a socket - card has been tested at 50MHz, 56MHz and 60MHz as well.
Plus there is a heat sink for CPU - I had no need to use it, because my A1200 is running without any case.

The card has been used past 2 months with 1D4 motherboard without any issues - seems it is one of the most stable Apollo cards I had so far.
Last days I have stress tested it by running benchmarks, demo and memory test (for several hours) without any negative stability impact.

If you would like me to test something specific, please let me know.

Price: 450 EUR / 475 USD (was 535 USD / 500 EUR, 510 USD / 475 EUR, 485 USD / 450 EUR), shipping within EU included.

Paypal F&F, or buyer pays the fees.

Please take a look at the other items I have on sale.

Nobody wants Apollo these days?
I know they had bad PR in the past - but all my accelerators above 030 where Apollo and I never ever had any negative experience with them.
And I was deeply surprised this 1260 simply booted without any issues.
 
Well the socketed machs cause the card instability. Mine got them mounted directly on the card and it is rock stable. But the card also is not used anymore cause there are very good alternatives like tf1260, VampireV2. But to be honest IMHO what makes the card stand out is the boot time if compared with a tf where the bios/flash takes some seconds. The Apollo really boots fast.

I have similar problem with modded apollo 1260. Now I use pistorm32 is a good cheaper solution.
