After a lot of thought I think id better keep scummvm out of the calculation.. as long as I can run more cpu intensive games like settlers, x-com, theme park, then I will be satisfied. I dont need to run games like frontier.. but I hope the ACA1234 (at stock speed 25mhz) can handle frontier in case I change my mind :D.
I guess simpler ram expansions alone isnt enough for the more cpu demanding whdload games?

Maybe the same benefit like emulation of PC, NES, Macintosh and others? Or using any other program on Amiga - because near every task there you can do more efficiently with modern hardware. Simply joy, tradition, old world beauty... whatever nice you want.
Exactly :D. I just want to use the amiga more, and if I were to play those other adventure games on my 1084 I am sure they would look awesome.. compared to the PC CRT monitor which is a bit TOO sharp tbh.

Thanks a lot for the reply!
That indeed sound like the ACA1234 is the clear choice for me!
What I had in mind was the stock speeded ACA1234 at 25Mhz.. the 50Mhz version costs a bit much for me at the moment :(.
But from what I understand I can buy a speed upgrade if I feel that I "need" it?
Would the 25Mhz version also be able to handle Scummvm you think?

I am about to buy a accelerator card for my 1200 but I am unsure of what to get.
I want to be able to play most games in Whdload, but would love to be able to get Scummvm up and running too for simon talkie, dott, etc..
Would any of these 2 cards do the trick? And performance-wise, which one is gives the greatest "raw" boost to the system?
ACA1234 (stock speed) vs Blizzard 1230 IV 50Mhz (how much mem is actually needed?)
Thanks!

Ah, those time-holes yeah.. been looking for ages for one of those.
Thanks for the fast reply, and best of luck with the projects!

Hello!
Just wanted to check if there are any plans for a a600 accelerator by any chance?
Best regards // Stefan

thanks!! Just what I wanted to hear :D. Well ACA500plus it'll be then!

Hey!
Just got my a500 recapped and cleaned and ready to go, but I would like to get a ACA500+ or something for smooth and simple whdl gaming goodness...
Thought I would ask first if there are any ACA500+ successor in the works or if I can just go ahead and order?
Would be just my luck if I order now and in a couple of weeks a successor would be announced or something
Thanks!
