| 8372A | Fat Agnus | 1MB | NTSC, can be swapped for an 8370 |
| 8372B and 8375 | SuperFat Agnus | 2MB | NTSC, hard to find, grab it if you can get it, I think this is the standard chip for all ECS machines; I also believe this can be swapped for any of the others but you may not get all of the 2MB without other mods |
