How much does it cost?

seuden · 21 February 2012, 11:14

Any English reviews?

But he just said he's sold out and has not confirmed he'd be interested in a new run. Which is sad

I agree

An innovative and brilliant design at such a reasonable cost

The Amiga community is certainly a rich and talented place

Furia S628 CPU card I will not produced. Is developing a new more powerful accelerator and 8MB FastRAM directly on the board.

squidbass · 22 February 2012, 11:47

I particularly liked the statement (courtesy Google Translate) under one of the pictures:

"Whores MC68SEC000AA20, cell Furia is modular, composed as LEGO."

EAB Translate: That's a whole heap of Pr0n!

and later on:

"Cousin bitch on base of HC, is a classic 16MHz 68HC000, da overlock, but loses stability."

and we all know how that feels.

Everyone wants a as fast accelerator, for as little cash as possible. But isn't the target something along the way of making a A600 in to a perfect little WHDLoader? So 20-25MHz 68020, 8-12MB ram, and 69:- Euro, or less, would be the perfect space to fill.

Sorry, the link is just jibberish to me, my linguistic skills are lacking.
B!

From the littke I think I understood, I think the best option is to have a 68SEC000 furia at 42Mhz like before, but with 8MB of ultra fast access RAM, and keeping the. Ost to something like 80 euros.

keitha1200 · 23 February 2012, 14:35

I concur

A slight boost in power on the original A600 and additional ram is in my opinion: a balanced and sensible approach for two reasons:

1) Games compatibility:

Avoiding the incompatible problems/issues of the A1200/A4000 040/060 cards. 'Think' 030 rather than 040/060.

2) Cost:

70 odd euros is an ideal price for a games machine, which is likely to be playing a poor second best to the 1200/4000 models.

In conclusion: I would happily settle for the original speed, as this would give me greater 'game' compatibility and would hopefully keep the development within a reasonable price range, with either 4 or 8mb ram. I do however completely understand that other's will have different opinions, but from a good return on cost-development prospective? The greater the uniformity (hence software reliability) should generate more sales.

Still wonder about the evolution of the S628. On the poll you guys don't have an option for a PGA (full) 68020, which is a good option because it will permit more than just 8Mb of FAST RAM.

Are the PGA sockets that hard to get?

Boboo_SK · 15 June 2012, 09:33

I work on the new Furia accelerator, it will be a surprise :-)

rkauer · 15 June 2012, 21:20

Expel the beans, Boboo! What are you researching?

I asked about the PGA 020 because I have a short supply of 16MHz units in home, crying to be used in a decent cause (Amiga, of course).

Since the PGA units are full blown 020, with 32bit addressing (same as 030), it will be dead easy to add lots of memory to such a card. And 16~20MHz is enough to most Amiga classic games and applications.

BTW: can you send me the correct size of the Furia and the number of holes the board have? I'm trying to make a batch from a communal group directly in Brazil.

BTW2: can the board be mounted using a through-hole 68k PLCC socket instead the SMD socket? This way it will raise enough to clear the IDE header.

@Boboo,
how are things going? Any progress? Or will you really surprise us when you've finished the new Furia?
