Re: 486DX2-66 worth keeping?
The MMXs had unlocked multi. If you had a board that could set multipliers manually you could run a 3x multi chip at 3.5x. I still have screenshots somewhere to prove it. The 233MMX i had would not run past 266.
You got lucky, few boards could run at 100MHz stable. Then again, my Asus P55T2P4 was a regular Socket 7 not Super Socket 7. It had jumper settings for 100MHz but it would not even POST at that frequency.
