I'm about to upgrade my friend's 486sx 25 computer with the very modern 5x86

wondering if anyone here had any experience in that matter.
Don't laugh - CAN you double the speed of YOUR system for 3 USD? ;-)


Yeah, I did that during the last century... very easy, it's just a multiplier
thing if the moboard can handle it or a socket adapter with jumpers if not. If
I remember right, some SX boards weren't fully DX socket compatible, but I might
be wrong.
No wait - I can't remember the last decade let alone the last millenium!
