The Centris 700 has 4 MB soldered to the motherboard and one four-SIMM bank for memory expansion.

With the rear of the computer away from you, you will see several SIMM sockets in the front right of the motherboard. The four front most ones are for RAM; the rest for VRAM.

Memory can be added using four 1 MB, 4 MB, or 16 MB SIMMs. The 30-pin SIMMs must be 80ns or faster.

Memory capacities are 4 MB (stock), 8 MB (with 1 MB SIMMs), 20 MB (using 4 MB SIMMs), and 68 MB (with 16 MB SIMMs which are not officially supported by Apple).

VRAM

The Quadra 700 ships with 512 KB VRAM on the motherboard. You can upgrade this to 1 MB by installing two 256 KB or two 512 KB VRAM SIMMs in a single bank. For 2 MB VRAM, install six 256 KB or six 512 KB VRAM SIMMs, filling all VRAM sockets. (Note: the Quadra 700 sees only 256 KB on a 512 KB SIMM.)
