A4k RAM question
« on: July 15, 2008, 01:20:04 AM »
I am using OS 3.9, and I will not start using OS4 on my classic amiga.

I discovered that I have four 4MB chips laying around that are suitable for the A4000 motherboard, but are currently empty since I have 96MB ram on the CS PPC(60ns).

Should I put this working RAM on the mother board, and up to 118MB, or should I consider it a slow down, and leave it be?

What is common practice?

Then I'll insert the memory.

Only bummer then is that I need to take out all the zorro cards, and unscrew the mediator bus board... Since the motherboard memory sockets are well hidden now :)

Upside is that I have really good access to almost everything else now, including the CS PPC, and I can remove it with out too much hassle, and soon try out the modded KS chips I've had lying around for ages (3.9 with NO-IDE).

I bought 2x32 for about $19 incl shipping.
 
I will give away the two 16mb chips at the bay later.
