Ok, I thought you were referring to your RAM card there. I guess
you're referring to your TAG and DATA speeds here. I've heard some
people say they get better results if the DATA SRAM is slower than the
TAG SRAM. I don't know about that but the DATA SRAM can be a
bit slower than the TAG.

In my case I was fortunate in that I picked up the parts to go to 12.5
retail locally, then stumbled across the parts to go higher at a surplus
electronics store. The only part I ever ordered in was a 14mhz 65816.
Strangely that parts back in the box. I took it out of mine to try out in
a friends accelerator that was crashing. Since my ZipGS works just as
well with the original 8mhz 65816, I never bothered reinstalling it.
If I ever pick up a TransWarpGS I use it then I guess.
