That explains a lot. Can't wait to replace my TF328 with a TF360 and get the TF1260 into my ReAmiga1200 then *wink* *wink* *nudge* *nudge* :D
And I have been watching your YouTube's, but seem to have missed the part about thermals and CPU throttling :oops:

The NOTPORT is now able to read clock modules. My own clock module has a dead battery in it (despite being brand new) but @supaduper has verified it working.

I was able to update the firmware to support the RTC on my per-production Rev2 from supaduper via raspberry pi like the TF330 no problem. I received my RTC module but forgot to add the riser to my cart so have to wait for that. I have been setting the time via NTP over WiFi and thats working fine for now. I have been testing two CPU's a REV6 full CPU and a REV4 LC chip with an MMU but no FPU. the REV6 runs all day stable at various speeds. The LC runs just fine at 50 Mhz But I'm not able to run CPUSPEED to check the speed or try to adjust it. just running it hangs with "Program Failure (error#8000000B)". is this expected with the LC chip? just wondering if it should report the speed when run on an LC or is it expecting a full CPU?

All the best

Yeah unfortunately Amiga is nasty and need the binary to be compiled different for no FPU, 68882 and 040 FPU.

You’d really expect the OS to be able to fallback if the FPU is missing

And another happy TF360 owner, he has done some nice touches with his self made Terrible fire box and stickers and wrote a nice executable app for Steve`s CPU SPEED program which hopefully he will share

Yes another good video.
Good to see and have details of the cooling.
I think I will stick to just cpu cooling on mine as I only hit issues when we saw 30deg C and the house heated up. So not a regular issue for the UK!
CPLD cooling probably more important on TF1260, but I suppose that's the point of getting it out for testing to see what people experience, and the innovative/Heath Robinson solutions which result :lol:
