Which is the most convenient way ? Cheers, Luca Posted By Chris on 2009-01-23 09:50:37  Re: Commodore 16 expansion I would definitely recommend trying to find a upgrade available on eBay or a spare one from someones collection. Other than that, why don't you try making a internal upgrade yourself?

I just wanted to offer you them, and checked all my old stuff for that. I found them, but seems a little too big for the small guy mine is not 41464, but a 41C256P-8 (I have 4), but they seems to be 256Kb RAM ICs, maybe for good old VGA cards, or Gravis Ultrasound? Unfortunately too new for you ! BTW: Luca, why are you apprearing now as "register"? I remember you had a correct profile in the past.

MMS: He's not Luca/Fire but another Luca still italian like me Posted By MMS on 2009-01-26 07:03:04  Re: Commodore 16 expansion But I suppose not the iones I mentioned? seems to be different speed (80ns?). In the hardware section (C16 memory expansions) I saw RAM chips used from 70 to 150 ns too, maybe it is not critical, if it is faster... I am not an expert in that, just curious, if these ones can be for any use for you. I do not remeber, why I bought it... I will give and post those 4 ICs free for anyone needs in this forum! If no candidate, I will sell it on ebay... Unfortunatekly I could not find for these Samsung RAM chips any specification sheets... That's why I cannot comment the housing, and exact specs, maybe Posted By Chronos on 2009-01-26 12:50:20  Re: Commodore 16 expansion let's overclock dat!
