Accelerators come up for sale on Amibay and eBay quite often for the A2000 but the better ones always attract the most interest and can expensive. Cheap options are the 020 and 030 boards - A2620 and A2630, which give a speed bump on a stock A2000 but they aren't great and don't offer extra ram. The blizzard cards from DCE/Phase Five - 2040 and 2060 are good boards but are expensive and dont come up often. The G-Force boards from GVP are OK too. The fastest board for the A2000 is the DKB Wildfire but you'll have more luck finding hens teeth than one of these.

In my A2000D I've got a CSA Magnum 40/4, which Im pretty pleased with and it provides extra ram (upto 64MB) and a SCSI interface.

@Jiffy cheers, I forgot they come with some ram but not alot.

@runequester - if its ram your after and you're also looking for SCSI controller you can pick up a GVP hard card - it'll take upto 8MB ram and they come up for sale fairly often.
