Hey guys,
I'm sure a little while ago I saw someone post something they made along these lines? Or am I going mad :) Does it exist?
Cheers

I think it worked on the original TF536 but it was running at 8mhz anyway. I didn't bother past it getting hot and not booting at 50mhz.

I had it running frontier demo for a couple of days but it needed a heat sink on it

Yeah but it would spend a lot of time in 8mhz so probably *just* got away with it. I'm sure the falcon 030 was a smaller package tho ?!
