  I have a few questions targeted at owners of GVP 33mhz & 50mhz accelerators.
I just received my 33mhz settup today via fedx and to my surprise the
board said 50 mhz and had 60ns Ram.. It does however have a 33mhz CPU, FPU,
and clock crystal.  I heard a viscous rumor that many 50mhz versions use
a 33mhz 68030.. Can anyone confirm this? Because if that is true, I can
upgrade to a 50mhz amiga for the price of a 50mhz clock crystal..
 
  Second question: can any one please give me Diskspeed3.1 or Dperf2 results
from their IDE drives?  I did not get my system with an IDE hd because
someone told me his IDE drive only achieved 300k /sec and was not reliable.
I find myself looking for more HD storage and thus I am considering an IDE
over another SCSI if the GVP AT host adaptor is fast enough.. (and reliable)
 
 
                     -Thanks
