ECS EHB Vs AGA 6 bitplanes

redblade · 07 November 2018, 23:24

Hi.

Is there any speed difference between ECS Extra Half Brite and AGA 6 Bitplanes? I know that ECS has the limitations that you have to be very selective with the palette you choose. I was just wondering if there was any speed difference.

Thanks in advance.

There is no speed difference between EHB and ordinary 64-color-mode when both are displayed on AGA. Both can be faster than EHB on OCS/ECS, tho, when the faster transfer modes (fetch modes) of AGA are used .
