Available Cyrix 386sx to 486slc2 cpu clip-on upgrades (GG386/486 cards upgrade!)
Hiya!
I want to inform you that eBay seller hm222 , has another 5 of the following cpu upgrades, they are new and sealed in their original packaging. I have 3 of them, and used them to upgrade succesfully a GoldenGate486slc/25mhz to 486slc2/50mhz and my IBM 386sx/20mhz to 40mhz 486slc2 ... although not really a 486 upgrade, it behaves like a beefy 386DX , in any rate better than the onboard cpu LOL here are some pics: http://www.calpoly.edu/~rdsloat/cyrix_front.jpg http://www.calpoly.edu/~rdsloat/cyrix_back.jpg and here is my gg486 upgrade: http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...tqp/Image3.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...tqp/Image1.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...5042007004.jpg and here is my upgraded PS1/pro machine: (the green heatsink is part of the kit :) ) http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...0102007002.jpg I am in no way affiliated with the seller, I have purchased 3 of these from him without any probs whatsoever, all NIB. I have asked him if he has more, and he said he has another 5. so if you need to uprade your goldengate or commodore 386sx bridgeboard, here is your chance, I never saw them on eBay before. ;) |
Oh man, hope he has some when the salary arrive...my pockets are empty right now :crying
My new PC sucked my wallet bone dry |
you must get one NOW!
|
Thanks a lot!! I've contacted the seller, now waiting for response.
Full throttle actually runs on goldengate slc486, but not smoothly especially on action stage :D I don't have small fan on my ggate, is that normal and ok for upgrade to slc2? |
yes it is Ok, does you gg has a heatsink instead of the fan?
the upgrade comes with all needed parts, the clip-on cpu, a retainer piece and a special heatsink... is is better to also have a fan blowing air at the slc2... |
i think it was pentiums and better that required cooling like fans, etc. high end 386/486 may have had cooling via heatsink. however a cpu can never be too cool! ;)
good link btw keropi. nice to see you're helping out the community (brings a tear to my eye) |
anything from 486DX and better needs a heatsink, and 486/80mhz and up need a fan too!
on the goldengate I have a small 2x2x1cm laptop fan blowing at the slc2, and it is always cool to touch... on my pc where I have not yet installed a fan, the slc2 is BURNING! |

yes there's a heatsink on gg. I've got a prompt answer from the ebay seller, as you mentioned he still got 5 items to sell, a good news for ppl whom are looking for the cpu upgrade. :laughing I bought one yesterday :laughing, thanks again for you help. |

Yesterday my old HP Vectra 386SX 26mhz got some love
This upgrade really rocks...a 16mhz 386 isn't very usable for games after 1991 :( http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/5149/p1010307ct6.jpg http://img172.imageshack.us/img172/5063/p1010306pf0.jpg I got the same performance as a 386DX 40mhz now :great |
