Stay away from bus accelerators, *especially* if you intend to fit an accelerator like the CT60 or Afterburner. The timing on the Falcon is very delicate, and my experience is that expansion-cards (like the Afterburner, Nova, Eclipse etc) makes it even more fragile. I never got my Falcon/AB 100% stable until I removed the Nemesis and fitted my own clock-patch.
With the Nemesis installed (which btw. worked perfectly even at 48MHz without the AB installed) SCSI, floppy and sound was unreliable even at 32 and 40MHz. With my own accelerator I could get floppy and sound to work properly at 40MHz with careful tuning, but SCSI is still not 100% reliable.
