Amiga 1200 miscellaneous observations
« on: May 21, 2011, 08:14:52 PM »
I notice that 1d.4 doesn't care how long ide cable is, but 2b doesn't work if it is more than 15cm long??

I also noticed that quake plays quite much faster with apollo 040/40mhz 1d.4 than 2b???? 40% ???? 6,1 fps with timing fixed 2b mobo and 10 fps 1d.4 mobo without fixes?????

Apollo doesn't boot at all without timinfixes with 2b, but ok with fixes, Apollo boot nicely with 1d.4 WITH 3.0 Roms. Apollo doesn't boot at all with 1d.4 mobo and 3.1 roms, without any fixes.

Blizzard accelerator work ok with all of them.

With Micronic Zorro II extender both acccelrators gives about 10 fps Quake and blizzard with aga 14,4 fps??? So could imagine that 040 max fps is with Quake is about 10 fps, but AGA limits 060 to 14fps and Zorro II to 10fps???

FPS= Set screenmode to 100%, screen size to 320x200 and start new game and don't move at all. Press ยจ and write timerefresh to console.

PS. I don't have 1d.4 mobo with timing fixes, I would be curious to know how does apollo perfom with it.

With fblit or cosmos's new graphics library both accelerator gives smooth screen scrolling games like Foundation/Napalm but no change to smooth screen scrolling with Zorro II

I would like to know how spectrum 16/24 performs with Zorro III OR what is real life difference with Zorro II an Zorro III. What fps you get (with that Quake test) with your A4000 and AGA or carphics card??

Mediator just not interested :D
