Maybe for a keychain....

 

[Sunmansfx]

Perfect !!! for a Quad 486 SX machine ..Wooohoooo!!!

You could buy a share of Enron for 13 cents more!

 

[mriches]

my Duron is hotter

how hot do these things get? can we recycle them as sock warmers?

Use them and make something like this -- LOL!

Or you could buy 3 shares of @HOME and still have some left over to diversify.

Shouldn't they say CPU lane? Sombody call the Smithsonian...

Ya know, it kind of makes me sick to recall I paid $2500 for a PC with one of those, once.

 

[HoosierDadE]

I don't want to thread crap, so if anyone wants to know where to get a new one for not much more than these used ones, PM me ;-)

 

[Racketear]

Aren't p4 2.0 ghz jsut rebadged versions of this chip?\

 

[ItsStillUS]

lol

 

[UpChuck]

Can I overclock these things or what? PM me and let me know.

 

[trend]

actually those were produced in Malasia in a very good batch. I have been able to overclock this puppy to equal a p3 992mhrtz.
but i did use some watercooling and other tricks.
So speeds will very.

 

[ckmoocow]

haha... that's funny. p4's as rebadged 486's... LOL

hm... i don't remember if you can really oc these. Don't thinkso, but even if you could... it wouldn't make much of a difference! I had this exact same CPU once. I got it on my birthday 9 years ago!!!! man... the good old days... brings back memories

 

[dude]

I was able to overclock one of these babies about 10 or 11 MHz once!

That was awsome!

 

[vegetation]

You could overclock them to 40mhz with a heatsink/fan, made a huge difference with Doom framerates. Stock config only needed a heatsink -- those were the days!

 

[djlevyii]

Gee, even the page loaded slooooow..................

 

[krakken]

hm.. thats a lot of processing power for the money.. and YES it'd make a nice keychain. GOOD idea

Wasn't it this chip that they intentionally disabled the DX's math coprocessor circuitry to sell 'cheaper' systems? It actually cost them more to make the SX version, but then they could sell you a separate math coprocessor for an upgrade.
