- The fastest part from WDC at present is 20 MHz, However, you should be able to
- overclock the thing to 25 or so without any problem. Also, WDC does die
- shrinks every year or twice a year. They seem to get 4MHz more at every die
- shrink.
-
- However, the SuperCPU cartridge would have to be redone for 30 MHz, as the
- speeds of the support logic is not quite fast enough (the CPLD for one
- would probably need to be redone, which is not a small task).
-
- I would let CMD do the scale up.
