Actually, you need the 2 512k VRAM SIMMs in order to see thousands of
colors on a 14" monitor (640 x 480), or a 15" (at 832 x 624). This may or
may not be of importance to you, but just to let you know.
I have run both 7.1 & 7.5.5 (actually 7.5.3, but I've never gone all the
way up, because I've heard that the 7.5.5 upgrade only adds stuff of
relevance to PPCs -- & I've lost data on disks under 7.5.5 on other 68k
Macs.) I think 7.5.3 is actually just a bit faster, if you slim it down
(as recommended on gamba's sitte & elsewhere. A prime candidate, IMHO, for
slimming is Apple Menu Options. Also Open Transport, if you can avoid it.
You won't want to avoid it if the 605 is on the Net, tho'.
Have fun!
