Gfx card RAM - What do people need?
« on: October 10, 2007, 01:20:44 PM »
Hi,
I've read somewhere that you can salvage RAM IC's from old PC gfx cards and use it to upgrade Amiga graphics cards.

Since I've got a heap of old cards that are unlikely to ever be used again, what RAM IC numbers are people looking for? I might be able to spot a few IC's for the Amiga community one day.

moto:- Any idea what the chip numbers were? Most of the Gfx cards here are of that kinda spec/era.



Any other ideas?

Re using RAM to repair A1200's and A600's, I can open up an A1200 to check the RAM IC numbers, but could someone else have a look inside their A600 please? The more IC numbers I can find, the more I can look for.

Thanks for all the info folks,
