Compatibility and Performance
The QUICKCHIP 133 is capable of running 133MHz, however, the actual speed and perform-
ance delivered depends on your system’s bus speed. The QUICKCHIP will not work in systems
with the 486 SLC or DLC processors. The following chart shows how the QUICKCHIP 133
133MHz will perform based on the system’s bus speed and the QUICKCHIP’s clock multiplier
(3x or 4x).
The QUICKCHIP 133 uses clock-quadrupling technology which enables your computer to run
four times faster than the native 486 processor speed. At 133MHz, the QUICKCHIP 133 is rated
at Pentium-75 plus performance. The QUICKCHIP 133 features 16KB internal cache, a built-in
math coprocessor,and 32-bit internal and external processing running internally at 133MHz and
externally at 33MHz. The QUICKCHIP 133 is a convenient, high-performance solution for
increasing your computer’s CPU speed up to 250% over its current 486 processor. This upgrade
gives you the power and performance for today’s most demanding software applications.
The QUICKCHIP 133 is a chip-for-chip processor upgrade which installs directly into your exist-
ing processor socket, or Intel® OverDrive® socket. Many 486 computers use ZIF (zero-insertion-
force) sockets with a lever or retaining screw to make removing the CPU chip quick and easy.
