My new amiga setup is here
 At the moment i am running a blizzard1240 with blizz 1230 scsi. Elbox fast atat mk3 . 1 gig scsi drive and 3.1 roms .... what do you think ? The fast ata will be used for internal dvd drive -... I am currently working on a BPPC AND BVISION to fit this baby but want too complete the cooling for it first.... |

I was just thinking the same thing.
Either that or he was over excited with his new toy. If you consider selling your blizzard 1240, give me a nod. |

It does look rather nice in black. hmmm, maybe I need to look into this... Nice work, especially once you replace the enter key
 Can you shoehorn a bvision in there then? I've got a 1260 coming for my desktop, but assumed I'd have to tower it before buying a bvision... |

BPPC AND BVISION into a desktop case is doable, but very marginal (especially on cooling of the BVISION)
Need socket-risers for the Fast-ATA to clear the GFX card... ...been looking into this myself. (taking an alternate route when I can find appropriate hardware) @adonay: V. nice mod BTW (Give me a PM if you want tips on installing a slot-loader) |

Also it is slightly let down by the presence of an unregistered WHDLoad

*EDIT* just found time to write better ....
@ charlie : No worries mate i have had bvision and bppc in a desktop before as well as a fast ata .. So i know the prosess ... just wish i had a bppc with scsi ... I may also think about buying a idefix express instead... @ Zetr0 Inside pics will come asap ... @ Alexh Not sure about selling the 1240 i may convert it to 060 soon ... And i kind of love the compability it has with demos... Although some games have speeded up soundtrack with this card ?!?!? @ Graham As for unregistered whdload sorry about that will register it soon.. @ cane Its a Logitech mx 1000 connected to internal cocolino adapter ... This being saied that this is my first 040 and i am quite pleased with the speed the card has, but its no 060 at 80mhz but some things are running almost as fast ie: quake 1 is slow on the apollo and seems almost as fast on this card with aga... Weird ??? i think so too ... Last edited by adonay; 28 January 2008 at 15:30. Reason: not good enugh |

@Adonay
To be honest, I had nothing but problems with Quake ans my Apollo, even with a Cybervision 64/3D Mk2 it would hardly push 16 fps... and thats on the lowest setting... |
