New Factory Packed Cyrix Type 486 CPU's Cheap!
I have 20,000 pieces of some brand new Cyrix CX486SLC CPU's for sale. These
are actually branded TI, because Cyrix never made their own CPU's. They had
Texas Instruments, ST Micro and IBM actually manufactured the chips. These
are marked Texas Instruments TX486SLC/E-25. These are the same part as the
Cyrix CX486SLC-25 and some other CPU's listed below. Cyrix actually never
even made chips. They just designed them and had other companies foundry
them for them. Via Technologies has since bought the entire comapny. You
might find some around still, but they're all used, pulled from old boards
or in bad shape! These are actually new!
Here are some CPU's these will replace:
IBM -- 486SLC-25
ST Micro -- ST486SLC/E-25
Cyrix -- CX486SLC25
Via Technologies -- CX486SLC-25
Technically they're an enhanced Intel type 386SX chip. They have the same
pin-outs as an Intel NG80386SX. In a way, these are a cross between a 386SX
and a 486SX CPU. Cyrix just added some of the 486 instructions and 16K
internal cache ram neither of which was ever in the 386SX. It's a much
higher performance part than the 386SX. Many industrial applications still
use these economic CPU's, but they don't make them anymore.
If you are interested in buying them in volume, see my page on them at:

I have an auction for small quantities on Ebay. The bid is for one factory
taped and reeled lot of 300 pieces. Bids start at 25¢ per chip, or $75.00
for the lot.
