The Dynamite's Specs

The production model of the Dynamite TNT2 Ultra that we received has, of course, 32MB of SDRAM. The RAM is configured in a 16 x 2MB pattern, with 8 chips on the back of the card and 8 chips on the front. This particular card has Hyundai 5.5ns RAM, although we don't know if this is the sole source for Hercules' RAM.
