2000 Extra Chip RAM.
« on: August 12, 2011, 06:40:26 PM »
How rare is an additional 1Mb of Chip RAM for the Amiga 2000.

There are a couple of 2000's I am looking at, but as fate would have it, neither one has had it's chip RAM expanded. Considering the fact that I'm going to be using it for video production, a Chip RAM upgrade will be mandatory. So before I jump and make any purchases, can any of you enlighten me as to how rare such an upgrade is and how expensive it might be?

Thankx!

Well I just ordered this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180708385429&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

The seller never wrote me back about how much Chip RAM it has, but I decided at that price it was selling for, I could not go wrong, especially if upgrading is a simple as it sounds.

I do not see any memory expansions for sell on AmigaKit, so I'll prolly be in touch with you during or after work tonight.

Thankx!

Good to know! :)

I'm really curious to know what other upgrades this may require. It's been SOOO LONG since I've owned a 2000.

Can I use a PC keyboard on this?

Aghhh, and not at a bad price either.

I'll be back for that after I tie up this 1200 deal. Thankx!

BTW, if my board is only 512Mb CHIP. Does anyone here do the RAM doubling Hack? I'd pay!
