[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] A3000 Memory options

cdsst2@unix.cis.pitt.edu (Charles D Shaffer) (01/15/91)

I am preparing to purchase the A3000-25/50 edu discount package but
I intend to upgrade it directly to 6 Meg or more of RAM.  As this is
my first AMIGA I need some details about purchasing the RAMs.  Since
the system comes with 1 Meg of chip and 1 Meg of fast, I plan
to upgrade the chip RAM to 2 Megs and the rest of the memory will, of
course,  be fast.  My questions are: What memory gives the best performance
and allows the use of the burst modes of the 030?  Is 80ns fast enough or
will it lower system performance?  Also, will I have any trouble getting
this much memory on to the mother board?  What memory chips come with
the system?

		Thanks, as always, for your replies,
