Its not 100% optimized for speed yet but i dont have the time to do that. This version is just about letting the card sit in the A1200 without anything rubbing on components

I wouldn't mind being a guinea pig again @terriblefire as long as I can locate an 060, socket and the a1200 connector cheap enough (aware nothing is cheap 060 wise :roll: )
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

That is good news re the new PCB. Thankfully we don't have to deal with protruding RAM modules with this card.
It's great that TF cards have CPU sockets. Allows people to upgrade if they originally have a LC, EC or early Rev and also test those potentially relabelled CPU's!

Are you referring to 060 burst, or is that just CPLD logic that needs to be added?

No. This time its restricted to the closer builder team. After my experience with the TF536 i wont be doing wide beta ever again.

I've ordered the sockets and will try an MC68LC060RC66. I think that'll be plenty fast enough for me considering my last A1200 had an 030@50 in it.

Just need to locate the A1200 connector.

Will you be ordering it with Birdseed again? And I take it its the same ram as on the TF536?

Actually quite looking forward to building one of these as ive never built anything with an 060 before.
