English Amiga Board - View Single Post

Hi,

I have the same board revision.
I'm wondering if this board supports Chip RAM expansion cards similarly to the full A500+ or what is needed for that?
Is the logic chip (U35) required so that expansions can be used to extend Chip RAM?

The reason I'm asking is I'm not that confident with my soldering skills so would like to minimize the soldering needed. Specifically if I can get by without soldering the extra RAM chips and end up with 1,5MB Chip using just an expansion that would be sufficient for my needs.

Thanks a lot!
