Yea the Q700 was the odd one, one of the few models I don't have. Q950's
have 4 empty slots (max 2MB), Q840av also have 4 (Max 2MB), Q800 have 2 I
think (max 1MB).
VRAM for Nubus machines came in 512K and 256K varieties.
Make sure those VRAM SIMMs are 80ns, the 100ns
variety are only good with
the old 030 based LC machines, Quadras need faster VRAM. You also need to
install them in pairs or four at a time I believe (depending on the
machine).
The we love macs page says there's 6 slots for a total of 2megs of
video memory. I don't remember there being that many sockets, but it
was a quick glance. I'll survey the situation a little more closely
when i get home. Thanks for the info.
