not much of a speed difference between a 3000 4000 5500 on the mediator. The 4000, and 5500 give you more ram. Thats about it. The 4000 and 5500 give you exactly the same amount of ram becuase the mediator only accesses half of the 5500 ram and only one of the VSA's so it is a very big card of which you only use half of.
So it might be a tight fit if you have a small case or a power tower. There is an Amiga dealer that makes nice big cases in the States and even custom ones. Engraved backplanes the works.
www.mrhardwarecomputers.com sells them but does not make them. Not sure of the companies name that does.
Funny thing is this I installed a mediator in a power tower for my friend today. The damn mediator did not sit right in the case here is a case made by elbox and the card cage was 1/4" too high. the cards once screwed into the back of the tower sat above the pci slots. Also the voodoo 5500 hit the bottom of the 3.5 inch bay's so I had to move it down one slot.
