I think 68k based sound, 68k based CGX drivers are the problem here..
We need a real PPC OS (or some kind of 68k emu) for full speed...

Of course best solution is a brand new G3 board or a G4 motherboard
with good gfx cards...

But unfortunately for new it seems like new G3/G4 boards won`t be release=
d
for sometime (at least not with 3D gfx-cards or WarpUP support..)

It is a pity that there is no way to upgrade our Amigas...:(
