I do have a V4 myself in my A4000. Like I said the V4 allocates a lot of PCI memory. Actually 256 MB of the available 512 within the current Z3/PCI memory window (if the mediator jumper is on 512MB window size). The V3 only does 2x32.
I'll be doing some programming this weekend to get a better V4 support when I put it in my A3000. And maybe also include some code to read out the SPD on the 128MB DIMMs (which mine have). Maybe that will add 128MB DIMM support.
The allocation of PCI memory is done in the pci.library and is tricky to patch. That's why I had 2 versions of the pci.library up until now. The pci library used to patch is 9.11 by the way.

Only 16MB of the 32 MB of gfx memory has ever been added to system memory as well. The latest Voodoo.card 4.35 does work with the old pci.library 9.7 fortunately.
