This sounds like it would be really suitable for a BBC Micro second processor.
They had designs for, amongst other, a 64K 65C02 running at a different clock speed[1].
Back in the day I always wanted one for playing Elite[2] (but then I also wished that Acorn had provided an official hardware update for 16 colours instead of 8.)
