2000 Mem. Question
« on: March 14, 2008, 12:29:38 AM »
Hi,
Still new here,
If I install this Progressive Peripherals Inc., 2000-040 Rev C. 68040-33Mhz accelerator card on my 2000 and the board can support 32 megs of ram Max is the the limit I will be able to have on the 2000? I have seen other boards In spec. sheets that can go above 50 megs   :-?
Thanks,
Xanaa

Actually, 32 megs is quite alot on an A2000.
Most ram expansion cards are 16 bit Zorro 2 cards.
And 8 megs is usually the max.
You PPI card should do quite nicely.

 Detail: on A2000, a huge amount of RAM is 25Mb :lol:

 16 Mb on an accelerator
 1 Mb CHIP RAM
 8 Mb in a Zorro II slot (and forget about putting other devices in the Zorro bus)

 No kidding: 32Mb are enough to almost any Amiga application. Even for the multitasking programs.
