Chris Edwards has a habit of pulling long-forgotten hardware off the shelf and seeing if it still has life left in it. In this video, he turns his attention to the CyberVision 64/3D graphics card — a product made in Germany by Phase 5 Digital Products back in 1996.
The CyberVision 64/3D, often referred to as the CV64, was an expansion graphics card designed for Commodore Amiga computers. It came with its own 3D graphics chipset and was popular with users looking to give their Amiga a serious graphics boost in the mid-90s.
This episode focuses on whether the card still works today. Chris tries the CV64 in a few different Amiga setups to test compatibility and functionality. As with much older hardware, the results aren’t guaranteed, and that’s part of the fun.
The video shows the card up close, gives viewers a look at its condition after nearly 30 years, and runs through the challenges of getting it to work in modern retro computing setups.
Chris is known for his no-nonsense approach. No over-polished product tour here, just a straightforward test of whether this card powers up and does its job.
For fans of vintage computing, this is a rare chance to see the CV64/3D in action again — or at least to see what happens when someone gives it a go.
