- George Noel posted the following:
-
- : A1200 motherboard can use 68030 variations but would need more power and
- : a different pinout to use the 68040. On the other hand if they indeed
-
- no it wouldnt - since the standard supply can power the A1200 AND an
- 040 expansion card.
-
- : did change the motherboard enough to use a 68040, wouldn't that also mean
- : you could use a 68060 or would there be space limitations?
-
- because it would be more expensive....
-
- : would say it is still the 68EC030 at 40 MHz.
-
- probably......but the 50MHz 030 is now becoming much cheaper...
-
- : newer drives or B) get the newer A1200 and risk the drive problem and
- : having to wait for new games/apps to be released which do not break or C)
-
- the drive problem? a few (mainly older) games that use the har DSKRDY
- signal (which you arent supposed to...) dont worry about that problem as
- it is now solved....
