Hi all I am thinking of getting an Amiga Mediator PCI extension for my Amiga 1200 I have an Apollo Accelerator to go with it 030/40 I need to know what is the best grafix card to go with the Mediator?

TIA,

Mike.

the sapphire radeon works well and is 3.3/5v compatible.here is 1 example:

There are many ati versions also that work, just watch for the 3.3v/5v deal.. most newer mediators support 3.3v so you shouldn't have any trouble finding one

Radeon is the best if tou dont care about 3D. If you can find a VooDoo 3 its very fast and well supported as well as having full warp3D support.

The ram isnt to bad as well. I have 650MB in my A4000T and love the extra room to run what I want.

Since he is using a 030/40 i am willing to bet 3d won't be of much use ;)

I have about 500MB of ram on my A4000 and i use it like crazy, i do everything in ram it seems :D

I think it was amigakit who posted the pic with multiple zorams at 1GB..  in theory zorro3 space is 4GB,so even that 1GB could be exceeded if you have the slots.
