Mine has 132, and it only has one RAM slot. Sounds like yours has two
so
you could go up to 128+64+4 = 196. What to do with it ? Well one thing
would be a big RAMdisk, which you could boot from and that speeds
things up considerably (that IDE bus in there is dog slow)
You could try the overclocking but it might destabilize the video.

Maybe you could go even bigger. If you run 8.1 then you can use HFS
extended
format for the non-boot partitions which is more efficient.
My scanner, an Agfa is supposed to work with 68k although I never
tried it. But it would help you fill the hard drive.:.<}

Just curious -- do they both run at the same time ? If so can they
communicate in any way?
Does the A/V card help you with music at all (digital recording/
playback more quality). ?
