    replacement for 80286

    Ok, 2 questions....... I have an IBM AT 5170 Gen 1 (256/512 motherboard) with a 6MHz 80286. Can I just pop out the CPU and drop in a faster one ? Is so, what do you find to be the best CPU to replace it with ? The BIOS has been upgraded to the Gen 3 July 10, 1985 BIOS chips. Thanks !
