The A3000, also known as the Commodore Amiga 3000, was a much more serious proposition to build a professional multimedia computer than the previous A2000 effort. It was released in June 1990.

The Amiga 3000 came in a desktop box with a separate keyboard.

Technical Specifications

One could increase the amount of Fast RAM by adding ZIP DRAM chips, these were notoriously difficult to fit - and were available in two varieties, Page Mode or Static Column.

Other models included the A3000UX bundled with UNIX System V Release 4, and the A3000T tower computer.

An enhanced version, the Amiga 3000+, with the AGA chipset and an AT&T DSP chip was produced to prototype stage but never launched, instead Commodore replaced the A3000 with the cost-reduced A4000.
