A cheap memory board almost certainly will conflict with PCMCIA unless it has 4MB or less on it. On the plus side, even that will pretty much double the speed of your machine, no extra processor needed.

The A1200 uses 4MB of 24-bit Autoconfig address space for PCMCIA, and 8MB expansion cards in the trapdoor overlap that space unless there is some extra logic somewhere to deal with the issue. Using 4MB on the card does not cause that conflict.
