Mapert Memory Upgrade worth doing ?

HI All,

 

I have an Atari 520STfm and a 1040STfm. I am about to upgrade both of them to Rainbow TOS 1.4 and I am thinking about the 4meg Marpet memory upgrade. My question is it really worth it? are there big benefits in doing it? I am mainly just going to be playing games on it for nostalgia :-)

 

I have read that it can cause problems with some games. I know you can install a hardware switch to switch between 1mb and 4mb modes but I think that might be a bit beyond my expertise. I can do simple stuff like installing the Marpet and disabling the on board RAM banks but I would be worried I would stuff up the switch.

 

Anyway any advice would be great :)

 

 

Cheers
