Would this memory work?

Amiga1992 · 30 June 2008, 10:58

I find lots of memory SIMMs on eBay that are sold in pairs. Some of them say "must be used in pairs!"

Does this apply to the Amiga? I think not, but I best ask before buying useless crap :P

Cheers!

a lot of 30pin sims have to be used in pairs or quads, but i remember that some 72pin simms (very old 16bit data-path) simms may well need to be as well.... i cannot remember off the top of my head... so

@Akira

they "Should" work on any Blizzard Accelerator for the A1200,

there might be a physical issues, but I belive this can be overcome with the use of an elastic band.

If you are intending to use this in an Apollo Accelerator, its unlikely to work, as the memory handler cannot handle a matrix that big (only 32MB maximum)

but those links "Should Work"

good luck

No, I have a Microbotics X1230, you can put up to 128MB in those, so this should be safe.

Thanks!
