I should have said maybe they are not in yet. should
be delivered late this week.
I have a 2-socket LC630 or Q630 motherboard that I was thinking of
upgrading.. I read somewhere that they would only accept 64 + 16.
I guess
that is wrong? What sort of SIMMs are yours? Can you tell me the chip
count or the chip part codes? I've seen some 72 pin, 64 MB, DEC
SIMMs on
ebay of late, but I didn't feel confident enough to buy some.
the best web link i could find on this topic was
http://colourclassicfaq.com/mobo/ram.html
according to this your machine (which is actually
seems a 631 motherboard. I have a 630 - it only has
one slot, but i have seen a 631 and it had two).
has the highest possible RAM at upper limit of 192MB.
It looks to me like you have to use single sided cards in
the second slot and double sided in the first, and neither
likes double banked (wide) one. problem I had on
ebay was often it says "may not be the exact picture".
even the memory companies on their own sites do this.
so anyway the parts i got i do not have to look at yet
but on the order reciept it says:
128MB Apple Performa 630 Series 72-pin SIMM (p/n APL72P128)
$49.98 1 $49.98
64MB PowerMac 6100, Performa, Quadra 72-pin SIMM (p/n
APPLE-64MB-FPM-SIMM) $19.98 1 $19.98
(I think I spent too much)
