Dear Friends:
I am thinking about getting a used a3000.
What is the max possible ram ?
What are the max possible upgrades ?
what is the max ram on accel and expansion boards?
Can I use Opalvision?
Any suggestions for this system?
Mind, I have a nice working a1200...but never had an a3000.
My goal is to get the a3000 and use it to upgrade it to the max, step by step.
Thank you!!!

You would probably be better off putting your A1200 into a tower conversion, or getting an A4000 to expand and "max" out step by step.
Yes, you can use an OpalVision in an A3000 and also in an A4000, it has an excellent paint program, but has little use other than that and as suggested elsewhere in this thread, your video slot would be better used by getting a PicassoIV, or other video graphics card, as most people with expanded Amigas do.
Since you already have an A1200, putting it in a tower would be your least expensive option. Also, expansion equipment for the A1200 is more easily obtained, even though A1200 towers are probably more common in the UK and Europe than the states.
