PowerPC 603e Accelerator Board for the AMIGA 1200(T)

The BLIZZARD 603e+ Power Board is the inexpensive High-End PowerUP Accelerator Board for Amiga 1200 systems. It features a high-performance PowerPC603e RISC processor, available at different clock speeds, an 68LC040, 68040 or 68060 companion processor, and a memory expansion option for up to 128 MByte of high-speed memory by use of standard SIMMs. An on-board Fast-SCSI-II controller is integrated as well, allowing the connection of a variety of SCSI devices such as hard drives, streamers, removable media or scanners. As an important additional feature a graphics board direct slot is also implemented, enabling the customer to use the powerful graphics board BVisionPPC without the need of an additional bus backplane. By using the direct slot, bypassing the limitations of the Zorro bus system, the performance of the BVisionPPC is significantly higher than the performance of Zorro-bus based graphics boards and will allow a new generation of applications on Amiga 1200(T) with a BLIZZARD 603e+ Power Board.
