Title: Blizzard 1230 IV 50Mhz
Post by: Abou27 on December 22, 2003, 12:32:15 AM

I see a lot of postings and comments elsewhere regarding the maximum amount of RAM that this board can accept directly.  I have a 32Mb SIMM on mine and thought that this was the maximun.  However, I hear of people attaching much more!  Can anyone say, definitively, what the maximum is?

128 MB is the max..

1 simm.

if u have a scsi controller for it (addon card) then it can take 2x 128 as max... ie 256 mb..

tested and it works..

if u need memory let me know :)

Can it honestly take 128Mb - that's lush!  Should it be single sided?  Current 32Mb isn't so presumably if that fits, others will?

Lempkee - you seem to be my personal Amiga advisor :-D

Your help is much appreciated :-)

depends on the simm , double or single should fit no matter what but problem is that there is alot of lame ass simm producers, hence some might not even work..

let me know if u need simms that will fit in this card, and yes they are CHEAP even..
