# MicroAce Video Upgrade

Smooth flicker free graphics has been the “impossible dream” for Sinclair ZX80 or MicroAce owners, at least until recently. It has been particularly frustrating to have the new 8K ROM and realize that this capability exists on the chip but is denied the ZX80 user! The MicroAce Video Upgrade was designed to eliminate this problem, and it works very well.
