    Hi.

    I received another HD4350. From the sticker on the card it should have 512 MB RAM, but in MorphOS it shows only with 256 MB. At first I wanted to return the card. But then I have seen the sticker. Now I'm not sure who is right. :D

    Both.

    The cards only reports 256MB when operated in 32Bit mode.

    Same with my R5 230 and it's 2GB.

    Can they operate in other than 32 bit mode in MorphOS?

    OK, forget the question. In a 32bit OS supposedly not.

    Did you some benchmark comparisons between your 7,3 and the 11,2?

    Unfortunately I can't make a real comparison. I realized that both my 11,2 are 2,3 GHz.
    But are there no benchmarks available?

    I did some Linux benchmarking DualCPU 2,3 GHz AGP vs. Dualcore 2,3 GHz PCI. at that time with stress-ng, but unfortunately did not save the results.

    RAM-centric benchmarks were faster on the PCIe G5 (no surprive, DDR1 vs. DDR2) and CPU cache-centric benchmarks a little bit, but not much. What was worth the upgrade for me was much less noise on the PCIe G5.
