I've got a 33 MHz oscillator and can try swapping later on.

I'm running the latest alpha firmware. The graphical corruption wiht those three games happens all the way from the start at the loading screen, so I'm not sure it's the CPU speed.

Here's a shot of the the card. The Compact flash card isn't used yet. The Kickrom is relocated.

And here are my 3D printed accessories for the Amiga. Goteck case, MeanWell PSU case and gamepad.

It does the same at 33 MHz. I don't expect flawless functionality with all games with this card. I've got another 030 (plastic top) on the way which I will try as a comparison.

I partitioned the CF card too now and it works too, so IDE is also working.

Check CPU socket?

It works in most games. Elite 2 is smooth and awesome. Installing F1GP now to the HD. Will figure out WHDLoad later on.

Have you tried Hard Drivin' on your TF534?

If I wanted to waste some money and install an FPU, is there a certain model FPU I should get?

Thanks.

Here's a video of the Frontier intro running:


I wrapped my TF534 in kapton tape today, except the CPU and headers, to reduce the risk of ESD damage if I handle it to replace CPU.

EDIT:
Actually, I could design a 3D printable a case for it with exposed CPU top and header pins, and venting holes for the RAM.

Has anyone else tried the games I mentioned with their TF534?

I’m not at home, so can’t try any games at the moment. I wouldn’t worry about glitches until you try the whdload versions
