Well it is certainly cool to have an "entry" level card. And the performance is nothing to sneeze at either for what it is. Also interesting that it's a 603e basically with no L2 but larger L1, but really fast RAM(for what us Amigans call fast).

looking at some cards some have faster ram than others as i have 1 with DDR333 and another with DDR400

Still ironing out the last few bugs. The stuff I started to test (and for which I posted benchmarks) all ran flawlessly. But I had some crashes here and there with other stuff so I am not uploading the changes to git just yet.

You'll also need pci.library 13.6.

I said someone had to pick a name for the KillerNIC, and that is the result.

Look this video:

FFPlay can play many formats, also HTML5, so we could have simple player to video from Youtube!

It is too slow on me with 68k. Cant play any h.264, working but it is like slideshow on cyberstorm mk3. This video done with vampire500 and working with apollo 68080 core. This fpga has more instruction with ammx function from 68060. There is no vampire card yet for aga machines(for us) Last version Ffplay_wos could be very good.

You guys got your KillerNICs? I think i've ironed out most of the bugs... I'm updating the source soon. Things will probably break for other cards, so I need also people to test with those cards.

When I've got the software working more robustly, I will release to the community. NB only for the 750FX.

trixster · 12 August 2018, 21:39

Will test tomorrow

looks like 1 company used to swap cpus with the 750FX/GX over older 7410/750
guess the onboard cache isnt accessed and not a issue since its all on die with those 2
all those extra pins were just for cache anyways i figured this was the case just didnt see proof till now
they needed to use a adapter so this is a bit harder project
http://www.sterpin.net/uk/pismologixuk.htm

can steal a 750FX cheap from a ibook G3

just fyi any 603 cpu can be swapped with a 740L or
on ebay there are 255 to 360BGA adapters with cache
another project of mine

Hedeon · 13 August 2018, 10:39

I'd like to update the Aminet release soon. So if there are still issues, i'd like to know.

One of the problems solved was regarding Earth2140 & Freespace for example.

@Trixster:

Seeing that your Amiga crashes with the Mediator settings needed for the A1200, better send a mail to Elbox.

nexus · 13 August 2018, 11:02

for those needing pci.library 13.6 here is the link
http://www.elbox.com/download/pci13.6/pci.library
they didnt update the site

Killer K1 in the post, and have a 1200 with the Mediator TX in it. Happy to help by testing as required once it gets here
