Memory Expansion


Importance of Memory Extension

Your Stealth 3D 2000 PRO is fitted with 2 MB EDO-DRAM or 4 MB EDO-DRAM. This memory size is adequate for many applications on the market.
4 MB EDO-DRAM is recommended for higher resolutions, faster refresh rates, and/or higher color depths, or, if you want or need z-buffering (Direct-3D/Games).

Memory Expansion Modules


Optional memory modules (piggyback boards) are available.


For Stealth 3D 2000 PRO with 2 MB EDO-DRAM and upgrade sockets

Upgrade module:2 MB EDO-DRAM
Maximum video memory:4 MB EDO-DRAM

Adding Memory



Warning!

Prevent static electric damage. Static charges can cause severe damage to microcircuits, but here are some easy ways to see that it doesn't happen:

Hold the graphics card by its edges only. Don't touch edge connectors or exposed circuitry.
Leave cards in anti-static protective bags until ready to install them in your computer.
If possible, ground your body when handling the cards. A metal power supply in your computer is generally considered the best place to ground yourself.
Do not place cards on a metal surface.
Make as few movements as possible to avoid building up static electricity from your clothing, carpets and furniture.


Warning!

You must install either none, or all four memory upgrade chips. The board and your system will not function properly with a partially installed memory upgrade.


Step 1: Take the graphics card out of your computer, if it is already installed.

Step 2: Install the four memory upgrade chips to the designated sockets on the graphics card - refer to the illustration.

  1. Make sure that pin 1 on the chip, marked with a dot on the beveled edge, connects to pin 1 of the socket, marked by a beveled corner (X).
  2. Press the memory upgrade chips evenly into the sockets until they are fully seated.
