However, do note the voltage. The blizppc (and all other amiga boards) use 5v simms. Lately I've seen several norwegian online computer stores selling reasonably priced 128 MB simms, but these were all 3.3v, which means they'll be fried on the blizppc.


It's beyond the realms of possibility, that the 3V3 devices are 5V tollerant. In fact, it would be supprising if they weren't. The memory controller on the Blazzard may not like the signaling level though, if it was designed in an era when 5V device were the majority, not the minority.
