My new A4000/Phase 5 060

Working on bringing this machine up to snuff - Stock A4000/040, battery removed and cleaned up (might put in a button battery - haven't decided yet). Phase 5 060 CPU board + 128MB RAM + Indivision AGA video

Yeah, that's a stock photo of the AGA 4000D - I didn't have a picture of mine handy - sorry.

OOoOOoo

Cyberstorm 060 Mk3 .... very nice!!!

I look forward to seeing the build , good luck and take pics!

The rests of the battery acid crisis doesn't look good at all...
It's a miracle if it actually does work

Else than that: Lovely accelerator!

Now I am jealous....., at the Indivision.

Amigakit out of stock

But that Battery cancer does not look good at all , I got a Cyberstorm Mk II, but would LOVE a MK III.

BTW, what did the MK III give, over the MK II ? (Apart from Ultrawide SCSI).

We are not out of stock of the Indivision 4000:

OOHH, I must have mistaken the red text of the price as being out of stock, cool, How about Indivision A1200 ?

@ CodeSlave9000
The CS3 looks familiar!
What kind of RAM could I use in my CS3? I would like 128Mbs too. Also did you experience any fitting problems with the Indievision AGA? Thinking of getting one of these.

I put in EDO 72pin SIMMs, 60ns. Pretty much stock PS/2 SIMMs that I got in a mixed bag. I bought 256MB of them and hand-picked the ones I thought would go well together.

No fitting problems with the AGA - it went in smoothly and worked first try, even after flashing the firmware on it. I'm running the HghGFX HD720 monitor driver with it without problems.

It looks ugly, but there's not much damage beyond the surface - it didn't impact any nearby chips. I'm hoping I got all the acid neutralized and it's not still digging around in there.

Accelerator is up and running - only showing 96MB right now for some reason, so I probably have to re-open it up and reseat a SIMM. Getting the right 68060 libs in place isn't well documented, but I managed it after a few fumbles.

Thanks - I'll see what I can do with the pics...

Waiting on a network card now from AmigaKit - it's probably held up by the airline problems coming out of the UK.

Another Phase 5 money shot, plus my odd-lot of SIMMs.

Thanks for the info CodeSlave9000. Have fun with your CS! I am still waiting for my new 060 chip (mine was knackered on my CS). Hope it all works when I nail it together!
