The Cyrix 6x86MX PR200 was Cyrix' answer to the Intel Pentium 200. Generally it ran quite well although it ran slightly hotter than the Pentium. For Office use the 6x86 was an excellent choice but for gamers Cyrix left the competition when Quake arrived. The floating-point-unit (FPU) wasn't that str... > Read more
Cyrix' M2 was, on paper, quite an improvement over the M1R that the IBM 6x86 P200+ used. This because the M2 is made on 350nm instead of 650nm and thus uses a lower core voltage which causes much less heat generation. Despite this, the increased L1 cache (to... > Read more
Similar to the Cyrix 6x86MX PR200 but then a tad faster. This one clocks at 187MHz using a 75MHz front-side-bus so it's only 21MHz faster than the PR200 mentioned earlier. Luckily the increased front-side-bus will compensate for the slightly increased clock ... > Read more
Technically this is a Cyrix CPU but IBM sold them under their name as well. I like the dark looking heat spreader that just sits on top of the 'die' (the core). You can look under the heat spreader and actually see the 'die' along with some SMD chips. Somehow that reminds me a lot of the AMD K6-2 (w... > Read more
