I don't know about adding memory in the way you described, but there's Amiga users out there who have added more than 1GB of memory to their Amiga's through various combinations of other cards. I remember seeing a screenshot of one a while back, the number across the top of the Workbench screen looked so long, lol.  


no, he obviously wants it via csppc expansion slot this time, because he already opened other threads on similar topics.

@dandy

you are reffering to a solution similar to alienating rtg ram on pci video cards available via mediator, though those cards are available via zorro memory spacew, while cybervisionppc must be available within 128mb cpu expansion window on a4k memory map, so it wouldnt solve anything, even if an extension laike that was available. the solution would rather be a completely new redesigned motherboard without such bottlenecks. you may wait for vampire standalone or better ask such questions directly on a1k.

There's also the fact that the csppc firmware is hardcoded with the 128meg limit.


according to whats i been told on a1k, its not hardcoded on any accelerator firmware but restricted by a memory map implemented in a particular amiga chipset. ergo, you would have to modify that chipset in order to implement another memory map. so except some simple hardware hack is possible, which i doubt, it amounts to building a whole new amiga compatible hardware.
