Up for sale is a Blizzard PPC with 603e@210MHz + 68060@66Mhz (rev6). The card was upgraded by Stachu a year ago and originally had an 603e@160MHz+040@25
The card has 2x128MB for a total of 256MB memory. (Can be sold without memory -€40)

The card was tested today (March 28th 2013) in my A1200 and is working just fine. But due to age the card is sold as is.
See picture of the card at the bottom and a screenshot from today showing the card in action. Also a quick video shot today!

(I might be able to include a CyberGraphX v4 CD if I can find my spare one)
The original included cable is not the best, needs to be twisted exacly right to display all colors. I'll include a shorter one that works fine.
Maybe AmigaKit has a new one?

Is there a way to fit the Blizzard PPC fit inside an original A1200 desktop case?

The BlizzardPPC, and the BlizzardVisionPPC is designed to fit in an original A1200 desktop case :thumbsup:
An A1200T is recommended, but certainly not needed.
A good PSU is also highly recommended when using both cards together.
 
What are the limitations other than PSU and keeping trapdoor open when fitting to original motherboard.

Will it fit with the memory installed?

...well, I mean will it fit in its current state. Will I be able to; receive it, remove the 030, plop the BPPC card into my A1200 and turn it on?

Also, do you know what PSU I need to get?

If you leave the trapdoor open there should be no problem at all. Everything fits in a standard A1200 desktop case. (BPPC incl. memory + BVPPC)

You could install it without removing the keyboard through the trapdoor slot, but I would suggest to remove the keyboard and install it with the case open so you're sure everything is connected as it should. (the latter is needed if you want both cards, BPPC+BVPPC)

You could always convert a AT/ATX PSU or buy a new already converted one from AmigaKit, http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=866
An A500 PSU that delivers 4.5A on +5V could also work. The original A1200 PSU is not enought to power the BPPC.
 
I need to think it over as it is a lot of money. Withdrawing interest for now with the hope hope hope that I get to buy it later
 
A little confused - probably me but what is the price in total for both cards shipped to the uk, cheers

I'd rather sell the cards as a lot at this moment at the price of €980 + shipping
Will consider splitting if both cards are sold. I will not sell the BVPPC until the BPPC has been sold.

Might consider a swap for a CyberStorm MK-III with 060.

On your Workbench grab the hardware clock states "Jan-1978".
Is the BPPC clock out of order? (I guess it is just the battery that needs to be replaced?)
 
No, it's not that the BPPC has the incorrect date, it's more that the date and time haven't been changed on Workbench. It would display and keep the time, if it had been set in the first place. :)
