I'd say you have screenmode promotion turned on (i.e. running NewMode).
Make sure you turn that off.

Yes, there is a difference between the 604 and 603. The 604 boards have 6=
4
bit data bus, while the 603s have 32, which halves your memory bandwidth.
And, IIRC, the 603 has only one integer unit, while the 604 has two.

On the console, enter "gl_dither 0". But that won't make it faster. Only

You probably have an old monitor driver. Those have problems with V39
multibuffering...
