Fortunately, this is a lot But why limit ourselves to this? 1MB/s applies to most I/O chips on the C64 Bus and to boards with 300ns access RAMs, 300ns also for the 2114 colour RAM. The 4164 DRAMs can readily be replaced with 100ns 41256s, thus with perhaps a jumper (for enable /disable, or config register/poke) you should be able to squeaze several writes in the valid 500ns ==> 2MB/s, 3MB/s or 4MB/s. - Nick PLEASE TAKE NOTE: The contents of this email (including any attachments) may be privileged and confidential.
