Hi,

just to show you this screenshot

http://www.ikirsector.it/im/amiga/7457_1.jpg

This is a CPU module that works on the A1 and the uA1 that use a G4 cpu NOT OVERCLOCKED at 1.26GHZ with 512kb of cache instead of 512 of the "old" G4

and this is the dnetc benchmark..

Hope we can see this modules soon...

[edit by me..]
this isn't a new modules but an old micro modules with a new processor..

i'm really tired...

Erm. want to tell me more???

So this is just ?A1 CPU module with new CPU?
How about XE module? Is it possible to change to it too?

@poweramiga

Wonder if it will be possible to send off your existing cpu module to Acube and have it upgraded ?

Any plans for new modules for G3 owners.

Basically ACube can repair CPU modules by replacing the soldered CPUs on the board, but you can't solder a G4 CPU onto a G3 CPU board. Better wait for an official announcement from ACube though.

Hmm it is time because my CPU module got trashed
(moving home) just before OS4 Final release last year.
But even if I will repair it, I will buy a new CPU module
clocked at higher speed in case...

Any info on when the anouncement is expected? I tried to e-mail them a while(last time: couple of weeks) ago, no success

Cool, but I'd like to see the anouncement about SAM.

An announcement about SAM (or this module) would be nice. Particularly one saying that they have an OS4 license. However, they were aiming for an end of Q1 release do they've still got just over a month.

Yes I know, but a little progress report would be cool.

@afxgroup

these are NOT new modules but old modules with a new G4 CPU and can work with Amiga One and Micro.
Nothing else..
For other info, well.. email ACube..

Cool stuff! I hope ACube Systems will be able to do upgrades/repairs soon. We all know there are many people with dead CPU modules and if they can get them working again for a reasonable price we can get some users back.

this is excellent news. Someone at ACube is using their heads for a much needed fix market.

Well done.

Hi ssolie,

Well, let's not go overboard now.

Many? If there are about 1,200 (micro)AmigaOnes out there, maybe 30 to 60 have failed, and a portion of those are due to overclocking, and probably wrong voltage settings too. Some didn't have adequate cooling, and maybe even were run in rooms with too high ambient temperatures, as well i.e. the height of summer. We don't know all the stories. However, maybe the CPU itself is defective and motoscum (failing to deliver on low power, high performance silicon) should be held accountable, I don't know. I mean, which other ICs on the MB failed as well, you have to ask. I don't recall almost any other ICs, in general, being destroyed as well.

Anyhow, on topic, really, I'll only be excited if they can offer a 1.6, 1.7 or higher GHz CPU for my G4 A1XE.

Although, this is awesome news for the ones who don't have ANY CPU that is working.

Major question is, do any who upgrade hold on to their 933 MHz as a backup, or pass it on to someone else who could use it? How close are these CPUs to the end of production runs (hence lack of availability) from ibum and motoscum?

It's taken a long, long time, but our hobby computer will be mainstream as it should always have been, in the near future!!!

Wooohooo!
