Any body tried over-clocking > the SCPU? We did a half-hearted attempt, trying to run it at 25mhz (with a 50mhz xtal pack), and decided that the RAMs, per minumum, were too slow. I also suspect that the PLD may quite possibly be too slow as well. :/ We _did_, however, underclock it to ~14mhz, which proves that the scpu can run at about any given speed while in turbo mode. -David - This message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing list.
