Computer Specifications

CPU and Memory

32-bit 

CPU

I

Intel 486SX, DX, or DX2 processor

Ail systems can be upgraded with a faster

microprocessor, including SX2, DX4, and Pentium
OverDrive processor when available; DX4 processors
require an adapter board to regulate voltage
High and low speeds available; high speed is the speed
of the microprocesso r, low speed is simulated 8 MHz;
speed selection through keyboard command or SETUP;
0 watt state memory access at high speed

4MB RAM standard soldered on the system board;

expandable to 40MB (maximum) using 4MB or 16MB
SIMMs; SIMMs must be 32- or 36-bit, 72-pin fast-page
mode type with 70ns (or faster) access speed

128KB system BIOS, video BIOS, and SETUP code

located in EPROM on main system board
Supports shadowing of system and video BIOS ROM into
RAM
