My suggestion is that you get a decent accelerator with 128MB fastmem on board, that memory will be much faster and larger than the motherboard fastmem, so the size and speed of the motherboard fastmem will (almost) not matter.

I originally tried this with an a3640 but no added memory and the machine wouldn't boot. Research indicated I needed to update the dmac to v4. I have a v2 chip and/or update the a3640 from v3.1 to v3.3 of the pal/gal on board. But then the A3640 isn't exactly what you might call a decent accelerator.
Perhaps I should go install a 50 mhz crystal and see if I can use the fpm with the jumper in 2-3 like the other post stated.
On a side note: are any accelerators being made for the a3000 or a4000 any more?
They are quite rare on ebay and other sites and have highly inflated prices
