The PCB is still at the PCB company. So found the buffers are in 2 different size packages :roll: Got them to order the other types which will hopefully fit. Just they are sooooooo slow to get anything done. :roll:

I just don't have time to work on it at the moment but with the 536 being a better accelerator, it really is questionable if it's worth continuing anyway. It was mostly just an experiment to get the fastest 68k system. But with its intention being for the phoenix platform and it's having upgrades very slowly anyway.. The SEC CPU will likely move to that project, but won't be a standalone accelerator.

Thanks, great tests! it would probably be better if you put it in the benchmark section and explain exactly what the tests were.

I'm locking this thread as I don't plan to work on this project for the foreseeable future.. To many projects soaking up my time as it is.
