A500 chips in plus

stuntpup · 17 June 2022, 22:56

I purchased an a500 plus off ebay.. but the damn thing got held/lost by the courier. While I'm waiting for the refund from the seller. I noticed a working plus board but minus the chips.
As I have another rev6a 500 can I use the chips from that in the plus ? And would it still be a plus ? Or am I better off sourcing chips from a real plus.

Cheers

I think everything except the Agnus could be used. Chances are if all the chips are gone it had an irrepairable battery leak common for a500plus
