Here's an interesting chip I've come across. Have you ever wondered why the clock tripled 486s were known as DX4 rather than DX3? Well, here is the DX3! The DX3s have a 2.5x multiplier. 63Mhz (2.5x25) and 83Mhz (2.5x33)

Really interesting!

And I believe it must be Socket 2,5 instead of Socket 3 Smile
