Intel DX2ODP 50

The Intel Overdrive CPU's were available in various shapes and forms over the course of it's life. In the early days you could have, for instance, a 486SX at 25MHz that was soldered onto the motherboard. Because it was soldered you could not upgrade the chip. Instead, Intel decided to add an empty socket right next to the existing 486SX25 CPU that could initially house am Intel 487SX CPU.

In 486 terms the SX refers to the lack of a co-processor (FPU). A 486DX does have an integrated FPU. The 169-pin Intel 487SX was internally a 486DX (tradionally 168-pin) but with one pin extra that would disable the onboard 486SX25 so that the 487SX could take over and essentially work just like a 486DX.

The early Overdrive CPU with the name DX2ODP work the same way: they disable the on-board 486SX in order for the DX2 to take over. This way a 486SX25 could be upgraded to DX2/50. Because the original soldered 486SX could not be removed you could not sell this CPU for profit. An interesting way for Intel to increase sales by blocking you from entering the second-hand market with your old CPU!

Back in the day you could also buy a DX2ODPR CPU. The R-suffix means replacement and basically they are identical to a regular 486DX/2 but only with write-through cache since most older motherboards didn't support write-back cache.

Later Intel Overdrive CPU's had better/real functions available to upgrade an older system. For instance this 486 overdrive is equipped with a voltage regulator so it can be used on older 5V-only motherboards. Regular 486DX4's are 3.3V so they aren't suitable to run in older 5V motherboards.
