Not only did it power on but booted in half the time with more fast RAM to use. If something went wrong its not like I can just go and buy another A530 at the store. So using Janin's work as a starting point and also using the 1M SIMM that originally came with my A530 I set off to work building my own.Įven though I triple and quadruple checked everything I was fairly amped up when I applied power. After reading that I thought to myself "I'm a EE with my own home lab, I can make these". I found this work ( ) from Pascal Janin from the 90s which I'm sure a lot of you know. And much like others I found GVP-M ( ) less than helpful. After lots of searching on this board, and others, I found that getting the GVP 64-pin SIMMs these days was fairly difficult. Had my Amiga 500 with GVP A530 accelerator out lately and wanted to upgrade to a full 8M of RAM.

I've been an Amiga user, and overall Commodore user, since the 80's and this is my first post to this board so I hope everybody finds it helpful.
