Here is a question. Would the AWE64 Gold card fit inside the Unisys CWD? I saw one on eBay and it looks kind of long in size. I wonder if it is too long to fit inside the case.
Does anyone know if the CWD 486DX2/66 can be upgraded to a DX4/100 chip? Also, what type of RAM does it take?
Thanks
John
I didn't feel motivated enough to remove my AWE64 Gold from it's machine, but I did open my CWD and there is only 1 inch of clearance past the end of the ISA connector before the card would hit the case.
As far as the processor, it is in a LIF socket, but cooling would be the problem. Mine has a DX 33 installed w/o HS, and I decided against attempting any upgrade. The processor is directly beneath the hard drive with almost no clearance, perhaps 1/4 inch, if that. So any fan would definately not fit, limiting you to passively cooled CPUs. I don't have any passively cooled DX/2 66s, or I would see if their HS is low profile enough to fit, but I think it might be. I really don't think you would be able to get a Am5x86/133 in there unless you got a special custom HS for it, and I don't know about DX/4s.
The MB has jumpers for up to 50Mhz bus speed and DX/2 settings. No mention of DX/4 processors.
