Yes, for Revision G Ramsey and 60ns or faster motherboard memory. You might be able to actually find a program that you might be able to tell the difference. However the most common cause of Amiga instability problems is not capacitors, but adding multiple "hacks" to the system software.

This is a hardware hack for A3000 owners with 70 ns or faster memory. Benchmark results are posted on the thread.

Great job Speed!

You really know how to max out your 3000.

The only hack I have done to one of mine is the 50MHz 882. Funny thing, I have 2 3000's both with all the latest chipsets and they run perfectly well but they don't tolerate ramsey utilities as well as the older ramsey. Strange, will have to look at what the newer chipset gives you again...

Your work is quite awesome. Congrats!!!

Well done! This is what i like to see new improvement.

Iv got faster dram on my A1200 motherboard & a 25Mhz EC020 but never got round to check if possible to improve the A1200 motherboard,as I have being working on the Bvision which I am just about trying to upload photo.

Ultra & Master Bvision is more or less ready,modified to operate beyond 37.5Mhz PCI bus regardless if the PCI bus has jump ship on the Blizzard card.
