first look motorola 68060 speeder for atari falcon

[68HC060]

Running at 90MHz, must give a little more than 130MIPS. Nice.

-Isn't it amazing that my Mac still doesn't fully beat the unmodified Falcon 030 ? :)

(eg. a simple things as a text-editor, one text-editor - faster than Tempus - was written for the Atari, and no text-editor on the Mac is as fast, not even "the world's fastest text-editor" from FantAsm).

I really miss the 68xxx instruction set in today's CPUs and microcontrollers.

@HRHShawnPendragone amiga is only faster with faster cpu and 3d graphics card ... but if you buy 3d card you can use also pc ... i do not bought ctpci with radeon, because its not real atari feeling ...

nowadays amiga 060 demos shortly ported to atari falcon , and there are still cpu time left, with same cpu atari is faster ...

i ordered the supervidel 3d speeder for ct060, but this is 100% register compatible ... so every demo and every other programm for falcon works ...

350 Euros, cripes thats more then an Amiga 060 accelerator! Mind you these really arn't common (eBay buyers seem to think accelerators for Amigas are super rare when they are not really rare at all) and chances are worth even more now.

@R33Racer The CT63 is so expensive because it was specially produced after a order of about 200 or 250 falcon users :)

great stuff, i remember getting my 060 for amiga, does atari have anything faster than this? 90mhz is sweet tho

[Jivemaster2005]

Are these things still made? I thought they were no longer manafactured...

I have a 16mhz Falcon which I traded for a Cybervision PPC Amiga graphics card but I've never used the Falcon since I made the trade, lol

€350?!?! You could have got a much faster PC I am guessing. Yeah I know the whole retro feel is good but still...

@richardbirch2007 - I take it you have no hobbies that you don't REALLY need to be spending money on? ;-)
