| Hi Samuel Crow. Thanks for replying (to my probably bizarre requests).... The more I read about CPUs.... the less I understand them! So, I guess that the Arria 10 would have that same problem too, then? What about the custom graphics chipset? For instance, I've only found out about 2 to 3 years ago that they were 16 bit, and was even way more shocked to find out that OCS, ECS AND AGA ran at a mere pathetic 3.5 MHz!!!! Except for Agnus, could the other chips, OCS or ECS or AGA be converted to 64 bits? Or would that destroy backwards compatibility? I ask, because the graphics cards on intel motherboards, they've made those 64 bit, then 128, and they're using 256 now.... Totally don't understand that, but it works, doesn't it? Also, could AMIGA's graphic custom chip be used for GP and CUDA like people are doing with nVidia graphics cards?
