Efika advantages:

- CPU is almost 2x faster (400 MHz, while the core comparable with 604e).
- Memory is faster.
- Most of peripherials integrated into CPU (= faster).
- USB, Ethernet, 16-bit sound built-in.
- You can use better gfx cards. Even if you don't care about 3D, DVI connector may be an advantage.
- The system may be made fanless easily. Enjoy the silence.
- The system is very small. Using PicoPSU you can fit it in 5.25" drive case.

Efika disadvantages:

- Hard to expand - no Zorro, one PCI (occupied by gfx card usually).
- Builtin USB is 1.1 only and has only 2 ports.
- Builtin IDE controller only handles one drive and it should be a 2.5" HDD (or flash memory card to IDE adapter).
- No FDD and no possibility to connect an Amiga-compatible one. Of course important if you store stuff on floppies.
- No AGA and Kickstart - you can't switch to classic mode to play some game or watch a demo. And UAE on Efika is hardly usable.

For me Efika is a winner, but you may find it opposite.
