This is not the way it's done around here. Could you please announce some pie-in-the-sky products that will change everyone's life or something in the near future. And never build them. We can then get back to the usual reality. Many thanks. |

How many cpu cycles does it take for a 32 bit read? 3 or 4?
What about a memory burst? 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 ? to fill a cache line? |

Worst case scenarios with a lot of areas and many bad guys dancing around go about 5-6 FPS. Not quite complicated renders can reach around 12 FPS. Average is 7-8. I was going to take some pics, but cam run out of battery ^_^'. I'll upload them later. -- |

Here they go!
First 2 are ADoom running on my Blizzard 68030 1230 50 MHz with 64 Mb Fast Ram. It says 12 FPS when standing in front of a door. Not so bad! That 12 FPS is the maximun it could get. As I mentioned, when rendering scenes with many elements it drops to 5. Average goes around 7-8. Rest of the pics are from the anime patch wad I made in the early 90's, when anime was fun, Doom was the thing to play and making patch wads seemed cool. -- |

a first personshooter game that runs at 12fps is not playlabe in any form
to be playlable and enyoylable and smooth Doom needs at least 45-50 fps and none amiga Turboboard reach that framerate ...even the 040/40 or the 060/50 maybe that rare A1200 /060 turboboards hacked to run at 80mhz can reach 45 fps anyways for me it is nonsense comparing turboboards with Doom on Amiga the best way to play Doom is doomsday port for windows....that's is really nice |

I saw some really odd results with an aligned move.l copy on my 030 board. Sequential copy was slower with data burst on. |

1. you start it when it doesn't make sense (at the end of a cache line) 2. you run it all the way through, 4 longwords, "no matter what". My ACA cards will only start a burst if it's NOT at the end of a cache line, and they stop a burst if the end of a cache line is reached. Call it a "dynamic burst", because it can be 2, 3 or 4 cycles long, depending on what's most useful. All this stuff is described in the original Motorola literature. I'd be surprised if Phase 5 has not implemented this, because it's not that hard to do. Jens |

Really looking forward to these boards, I think I'll have to treat my second A1200 to the 28 mhz version. She's still in stock condition, the poor girl.
Maybe we ought to start a "Jens Schoenfeld facts" thread along the line of all the Chuck Norris threads? |

I don't know what the production run size will be,but I can see these selling out fast! These boards sound great, and it seems there is nothing Jens can't do. I heard he can light a fire by rubbing two ice cubes together!
Jens, are you able to manufacture your hardware all in house or is part of the manufacture outsourced? |
