Can someone please help me identify this A1200 expansion?

It has a 68030 on the lower left corner as a friend of mine pointed. Is this a 1230 accelerator? With extra memory? TIA! |

Looks like an Apollo 1230.

Great catch ajk, thanks!
Any idea why they'd use a 16MHz 68030 on it? The one on your photo has a 20MHz 68030 Not that I'm complaining, I've never had any issues with it |

No idea, perhaps just availability or cost issues. If it has worked until now, it will probably be fine

I had only seen so far the MC68030FE16B with a 02D62C mask. This is the first with a 04D66C mask.

Apollo boards often came with overclocked cpus. Made them instable and infamous.
