I did them all, I enable external cache, with 96M RAM, on TX mobo (luckystar
mobo, very generic mobo), no problem at all. I don't see why it shouldn't work.
TX chipset has limitation on 64M cachable RAM, any more RAM above 64M will not
be cached by mobo, but there is no problem to do so, at least, part of system
memory will be cached this way.
