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

5x86
133 CPU. Since I've heard about good overclockability of 5x86s , I was
wondering if anyone here had any experience in that matter.
Don't laugh - CAN you double the speed of YOUR system for 3 USD? ;-)

The 133 5x86 is fairly rare....basically just sold as upgrade kits for 486
systems. Don't think these things have much overhead on them. If you set the
FSB at 40Mhz, you might get 160Mhz out of it. Stock is 33 x 4.0 multiplier.
