Well, I do see a vast difference with real life performance, but the trends are the same across the board. Tnx all here for thinking along and hopefully someone will get some use out of this crazy exercise I've been doing over the weekend. The not knowing wheither all is powered well can't go on, I need to know all is good and safe on that side. I happily spend hundreds of euro's on my amiga and also pay for software, I do have to have a feeling though that it is a fair deal and the recipients of that money have earned it.Īnyways I'm straying of into a rant and things are what they are.įor now I think I going to wait out the development of some 040 cards that are coming and I will get the powersupply from Icomp once released. It's choking the community at this price point, it will lead to eventual death as the base will remain too small but more importantly, there are many people developping and supporting the community for much more reasonable prices.įully new developped boxed special edition games go for less, Roadshow from 25eu, os 3.1.4 from 25eu etc.etc. So it's ecinomical madness, pure greed and no love for the community as so many goodwilling amigans gracefully reason. This chokes our community, so much more people would be lured in at a pricepoint between 20 and 30 and I'm 100% convinced it would earn more, and then there would be a much larger customer base for updates. So I would be paying for the development of a platform I'm not using. So an fpu won't be a magic bullet for Ibrowse, and the performance loss on 030 seems to be yet another sign that Ibrowse and it's ridiculous (though no inflation was charged :S (in a completely deflated market) 55eu pricepoint is a travesty.Ĭhoked to death for 12 years, hardly updated for 68k, most of the work went to os4, no price differentation for new users (where updaters can choose 68k only), and then just slapping the price of twelve years ago on it. Now all noted down times had to keep reoccuring and they did, at a point it became predictable even. Having installed Ibrowse a couple of ties over the weekend I saw omething I hadn't noticed before, the installation only has four options in regards to architecture : The general trend that is shown is that an FPU has little to no influence, other than less stable operation and guru error (yellow and red) on occasion with Ibrowse.Īlso a 030 at equal speed was in all setups slower than the 020 funny enough. Now I'm presuming that different architectures will have a specific setup (os and winuae version) that will be ideal, but I can also absorp so much new knowledge in a weekend, so the pefect setup will be a long term quest from here on.Īcross the board I did get similar readings thoug. I have done test on two different systems, one p4/winxp/1GB and a C2D/win10/4gb. The real deal will however always remain my weapon of choice and is uncomparable in emotional impact to the emulator. It does however feel good to have some general working understanding of it now and I will find a new hobby in all winuae. If I learn one thing it is that I have a lot to learn about winuae. Now I've spent all weekend litterally doing litteally hundreds of measurements, so hopefully someone else at some point might find the info usefull. As promised I would come back with some emulated data.
