Mixing pure fastram with slow fastram on motherboard and z3 just to go from 128Mb to 272Mb must meen you got a huge demand for memory but not for speed? :-?

I sure wouldn't trade my 128Mb of fast fastram for anything more that wasn't just as fast or faster! :-D

Save the money for a CPU board that take memory, even if it's just another 040/25 board it'll be much better than the "3640 & fastram on motherboard" combo.

I've seen the price of A4000 CPU boards plumit the last year so if you're lucky you might get a 060 card for less than you think (I see them quite regulary go for as little as 110€ + p&p now that many are uppgrading to PPC for OS4 but even PPC boards can be found for as little as 200€ + p&p with ppl going over to A1). :-D

A PCU card with SCSI and memory will always be the best choise if you can afford it. :-)
