What kind of CPU is this?

Hello,

I got this CPU out of an old computer and I'm not sure what it is. It looks exactly like the 486 to me. It had an aluminum heat sink attached to the top of it which i ripped off. On the heat sink it said Intel and had the years 89',93'. I can not get the things across the top of the ceramic off. The underside looks like a 486 but the top does not say it anywhere. Any help would be appreciated. I placed it next to a 486 for reference.

I think its a dx2 search google a4 Intel 1989-1993 and that's what should come up its 66mhz

The one on the left is a Pentium overdrive. These are fairly uncommon as far as I can tell. I have never seen a good answer as to what these are graded at.

If its a dx2 its the same as a 486 just a faster bus speed

INTEL 486 0.15 $130.00 ,,,this is last ones i had sold ewasted

put it back in the computer and turn it on, that'll tell you what it is

lol! i think he went to bed on that one ; )

too bad its damaged those pentium overdrive cpus have alot of resale value if they work

Climber, if you'll look at the heatsink a little closer, where you got those dates, there will be other numbers there describing the chip. I used to sell those(about ten years ago) for an easy $9.95. Had one out a good while back looking for something about it, just set it up here on the computer speaker, had about forgotten it until yall started talkin about em. Looked on Ebay and they're selling now from $25-$40 on up, depending on the chip
