With just a fast-RAM expansion there is no point in haveing a GFX and soundcard at all. All applications that make use of it require serious computingpower. Even a 030 @ 50 MHz would be hurtingly slow if you run a 1024 resolution (the high refreshrate of the voodoo is worth nothing if the CPU can`t provide the data that should be displayed at a decent rate) AHI eats up quite some power too.
Anything less then a 030 and he will stop using the machine in a few days complaining everything was faster with AGA and paula (and he is right about that).
Not really interesting, but it`s there.
