A1200 8MB Fast RAM Memory Expansion (40MHz FPU Option)
This high quality, low cost memory expansion increases your Commodore-Amiga 1200 computer's memory. Extra memory is essential for many games which require more Fast RAM to work. This expansion is ideal for use with
WHDLOAD.
Memory expansion is installed by slotting it into the trapdoor expansion compartment underneath the computer.
Additionally this expansion more than doubles the speed of your system to 2.91 Million Instructions Per Second (MIPS). Optionally, it will accept up to 40Mhz math coprocessor to be installed for speeding up FPU operations (
see option below).
Memory expansion features Real Time Clock header to install an optional Real Time Clock module: available installed at special price below or available separately here.
The optional Real Time Clock module's on-board battery ensures that the Commodore-Amiga 1200 retains the correct system date and time even when the computer is powered down.
An alternative product option is the Real Time Clock and Sensors Module which provides a Real Time Clock and monitors both the temperature and 5 volt level of the motherboard. The software to display this information on your Workbench Screen is available as a download from us. Please Note: there is also an optional external sensor cable to give a secondary temperature sensor. It is available separately (click here).
