This would be 24 bit (lines), so the range goes upto 16MB, including I/O space etc..Memory expansion is indeed limited to 8, or 9.5? MBytes.

Interestingly Z3 uses the same connector, but has to multiplex some of the address lines for obvious reasons.

Edit
Hurray, one hundred posts. ;D

I need to compare the Memory Maps of different Amigas. I assume each add-in card gets enough memory space to send and receive data and address information. I am not sure if there is a place for commands like a C64 REU.
Why? And what is a C64 REU?

You can plug in as many cards as you like until the 8MB are filled up. If you put in a newer Kickstart you can check the status of the cards in the bootmenu.

You can use ShowConfig while a card is plugged in, or SysInfo for that matter.
They will report the address space used.
also showboards comes to mind, but i don't know if this works with Kick1.3.

If you don't add more then one RAM card and one gfx card, you will run out of slots before you run out of address space. :)

Not at all. :)

If you can source a cheap reliable 020 or 030 turbo card, grab that very hard. The feeling compared to a standard A2000/A500 is like day vs night.
