|From: TANNERRJ@UWEC.BITNET ("Apple Computer: The Power to be Your Best") | |Ok, here is a STUPID question. What exactly is the GSX? Thanks. MY GOD!?! Where have you BEEN?!? That's Zip Chip GSX, 8Mhz acclerator for the GS. Comes with 16K, DMA compatiblity (RAMFast problem solved), 8Mhz 65816. It's pretty much like the TWGS, and you basically put in the same way. Put the card into the slot and attach a cable to the CPU socket... the original 2.8Mhz 65816 you can plug in on the GSX for storage. Other features... RAM cache is expandable to 64K, upgradable to 20Mhz maybe more, maybe little less... and you can either upgrade it yourself or buy kits from Zip. They have a 10-12Mhz kit available... also the GSX can hold a voltage regulator to supply 5-6.8 volts to power faster 65816s... without the mess you would have to do on the TWGS... make everything a little easier. I'm getting one soon... I've got the money, I just need to get my mom to let me use her credit card to order it.
