Welcome!

1.) The Chip Mem is limited at 2MB unfortunately due to the custom chip design in the A1200.

2.) The Blizzard 1260 runs quite cool as it has a 3.3v CPU - fine for a desktop if you leave the trapdoor off the A1200.  However you may need an uprated power supply if you are running with a couple of extra expansions.

3.) Using an SVGA to Amiga RGB adapter and SVGA monitor, the Amiga can access extra modes such as DBLNTSC, Multiscan, Euro72 etc.  These modes have better refresh rates as well.

You will need either Zorro slots or PCI slots depending on the graphics card.

PCI is preferable for performance and popular choices are the Mediator PCI busboards for the A1200

They can accomodate some PCI graphics cards, sound cards, TV cards and network cards.
