Hi,
I am looking for a CX486DRX2-16/33GP or CX486DRX2-20/40GP clock-doubled 386DX >> 486DX CPU upgrade. I'd like to use it to replace the 16Mhz 80386D CPU I have in my Intel InBoard/386 PC. I understand I might can use some other 486DX chips, but this one is specifically clock-doubled (its drivers also requires the drivers to do so). I've bee told I can use either the 16/33 or the 20/40, but when using the 20/40 the CPU will still max out at 33MHz - but both a pin and board compatible with the InBoard.
Now I've been searching the net and waiting for one to pop up eventually on eBay, but I did notice a seller called Quest Components that lists having a stock of 182 of the CX486DRX2-20/40GP CPUs @ $26 each. Does anyone know if this is a reputable source? ( http://www.questcomp.com/QuestDetails.aspx?pn=CX486DRX2-20/40GP&pnid=349584&stock=YesOnly )
Regards,
Mike
