Product information "MEGA65 - Mainboard without housing"

The 21st century realization of the Commodore™ 65 heritage: a complete 8-bit computer running more than 40x faster than a C64 while being increasingly compatible. Mechanical keyboard, digital video output, dual SDHC™ card support, Ethernet, extended memory and other features increase the fun without spoiling the 8-bit feel. Hardware designs and software are open-source.

This FPGA-based computer wants to be experienced, modified and improved. Development is ongoing!

Please note: Orders are possible even if the stock level shows "0" and in the shopping cart the note "This item is currently out of stock, but can still be (pre)ordered. (0 of 1 available)." is issued.
Please also note our information on shipping costs/duties/fees in non-EU countries.

Only one copy can be ordered per customer
On request a 2nd order is possible
This is a pre-order; the MEGA65 is currently in production
The third and fourth batch will be delivered in 2024
