1) Yep it works fine on my rev 6a motherboard Amiga 500

2) I believe the Fat Agnus part number is 8372A, least that is what it says on
my chip. There are programs around to tell you what chips you've got without
opening Ami up.

3) No real problems except my 512K expansion is cheap and nasty and
occasionally needs pushing back in.
