  AMD 5x86 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Introduced in November 1995, the AMD 5x86 (also known as 5x86-133, Am5x86, X5-133, and sold under various 3rd-party labels such as "Turbochip") is a standard 486 processor with an internally-set multiplier of 4, allowing it to run at 133 MHz on systems without official support for clock-multiplied DX2 or DX4 486 processors.
Like most of the later 486 parts, the 5x86 featured write-back L1 cache, and unlike all but a few, a generous 16 kilobytes rather than the more common 8KB.
Sales of the Am5x86 were an important source of revenue for AMD at a time when lengthy delays in bringing the AMD K5 to production were threatening the company's profitability.

 AMD K5 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The AMD K5 was a Pentium-class microprocessor, manufactured by AMD, first inroduced in 1995.
It superseded the Am5x86, and was followed by the K6.
There were two sets of K5 processors, internally called the "5k86" and the "K5" series, both released with the K5 label.

 AMD News Release #9591   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Because the Am5x86 microprocessor takes advantage of fourth-generation infrastructure, no motherboard redesign is required for today's desktop and portable systems.
The Am5x86 device is compatible with the installed base of x86 software, including Microsoft's Windows and Windows 95 operating systems, and also provides a cost-effective, high-performance upgrade solution for 486 DX2-66 and DX4-100 customers.
The Am5x86 microprocessor not only outperforms the Pentium 75 device, it also consumes less power, resulting in increased battery life and less heat generation.

AMD never considered the Am5x86 an "upgrade processor", largely due to the fact the the Am5x86 requires a 3.3 volt power supply and the 486 requires 5 volts.
However, numerous third parties manufactured "upgrade processors" that consisted of the Am5x86 and a voltage regulator soldered to a small circuit board with a 486 socket-3 pinout on the bottom.

 A Gathering Place: The Am5x86(TM) Microprocessor
Am5x86 microprocessors provide greater performance than Pentium-75 at a better value, with complete x86 software compatibility.
In addition, the design and pinout of the Am5x86 processor leverage off 4th generation system costs, allowing manufacturers to position Am5x86 CPU-based systems as the best value for entry-level desktops or mainstream notebooks.
The Am5x86 CPU delivers better performance than a Pentium-75 and does it at a lower system cost.

The AMD 5x86 processor is an x86-compatible CPU introduced in 1995 by AMD for use in 486-class computer systems.
Because the 5x86 was the equal of a Pentium 75 MHz processor in benchmarks, AMD later marketed the chip as "AMD X5-PR75".

 AMD 5x86 - 133 CPU Upgrade Info
The Am5x86 is actually a 486DX (the fastest 486 around) that delivers performance superior to the Pentium-75 on a modern 486 motherboard.
The Am5x86 does not use the outer pins, so skip the first and last row and column when counting for a pin location.
If you install the raw Am5x86 CPU, but you can't get the Am5x86 jumpers setting from the motherboard or system manufacturer, then start by setting all jumpers as for the Intel 486DX4-100 or, even better, the AMD Enhanced Am486DX4-100.

 Turbo Chip 133
Basically all you do is unplug the old 486 chip and plug in the TurboChip, and when you turn on the computer it'll run a lot faster.
The TurboChip 133 is compatible with most 486 desktop systems, but in a few cases the chip may not work because the BIOS isn't written to handle it properly.
I tried the TurboChip 133 on four 486 systems and found that it did not work at all on one, but that one was originally designed to use the IBM Blue Lightning processor (co-developed by Cyrix) so it may not have been intended to use any other 486-class processors.

To overclock the Am5x86, you have to change the JP19 configuration, CPU frequency select, to 40 Mhz.
With the overclocked Am5x86, you may have problems with software rebooting, ie you have to push the reset button cause a software reboot gets the machine stuck.
The default voltage is 3.3 V, which is a bit too low for the Am5x86, so push it to 3.45 V by changing the JP27 position to 1-2 instead of 3-4.

 Am486 Definition
Two years later, AMD came out with the Am5x86, which was a higher-speed 486-compatible chip used in new PCs and sold as an upgrade to 486 systems.
The Am5x86 had a built-in "clock quadrupling" feature, which let it run at 133MHz and match a 75MHz Pentium in performance.
The Am5x86 was also overclocked up to 160MHz and beyond by many enthusiasts.

 AMD - Am5x86 Editorial Background   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The Am5x86 microprocessor is designed around the premise that CPU performance is the true measure of value for PC users.
Because the Am5x86 processor takes advantage of the existing mature 486 infrastructure, no motherboard redesign is required for today's desktop and portable systems.
The Am5x86 CPU is fully compatible with the huge installed base of x86 software, including Microsoft Windows, Windows NT, DOS, OS/2, Novell® NetWare®, Unix, and more than 20 other single-user and network operating systems.

 Ace's Hardware - General Message Board
I had to overclock an AMD Am5x86-133 to 160MHz on that board before Quake 1 really became, to use the word loosely, "playable." A 486/DX4-100 was capable of the O/C'd AMD's level of FPU performance out-of-box IIRC, and of course nearly any Pentium could achieve it.
Sadly, the Am5x86 came too late too be a help, by the time I found it at a second-hand computer shop I was well into K6-2 hardware.
How would a 4GHz 486-like core compare to a A64 4000+?
