BOOSTER discussion ( WAS STE 32MHz PLUG IN BOOSTER (again) 2021 variation )
Just realised my div ide card plugs in processor socket. Will this cause an issue or can I finally join the stacking crew
Re: STE 32MHz PLUG IN BOOSTER (again) 2021 variation
I can't really comment on hardware combos I've not designed or tried myself.

Re: STE 32MHz PLUG IN BOOSTER (again) 2021 variation
A quick question (also applies on the previous STE booster version I think):
I got the MonSTer board from AllanH and it has a CPU relocator -what you actually do is unplug the CPU, plug the CPU into MonSTer in and then plug MonSTer in the CPU plug.
Could this be combined with the accelerator (even make it solder less as this is what I am hoping for)?

Re: STE 32MHz PLUG IN BOOSTER (again) 2021 variation
I would like to.
Does accelerator need to be first? Also, not sure if you've seen MonSTer, do the accelerator pins fit into the CPU relocator on MonSTer?

Re: STE 32MHz PLUG IN BOOSTER (again) 2021 variation
I can't really suggest how to fit stuff together as I don't know how monster works. It possible just fitting the booster in a relocated could break something. In theory the booster should work with any other devices but I can't say as what others have designed is unknown.
EDIT:
Come to think of it, I think it was tried before on AF and I suggested a fix to Alan to solve some issue, it was met with the usual hostility from people so I gave up. So it likely won't work anyway.

Ah, not good about the hostility.
I am really hoping for a solution that could combine acceleration, additions RAM and features and, hopefully using all the previous additional features, a graphics upgrade so the accelerated, beefed up ST(e) could at least reach some of the TT resolutions or even 80x600@8/10/12bit color.

Its where the remake boards come in, with the suska cores they are ste .. But it opens the door to 64mhz STram . we already have a HDMI shifter which supports higher resolutions. I worked hard to get 64mhz cpu running etc So all this hackery with altram and bodging on graphics cards etc is really all obsolete now.

Yeah, understood. I assume the HDMI shifter is part of the remake project? No way one can get it for legacy ST/E?exxos wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 12:08 pm Its where the remake boards come in, with the suska cores they are ste ..

It was designed for the STFM in the first place..MegaSTEarian wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 12:28 pm Yeah, understood. I assume the HDMI shifter is part of the remake project? No way one can get it for legacy ST/E?
