FIC GVT-2 and 3,3v, can i use an AM486 dx4 100 on it?
Because the manual shows only the jumpers setting for dx2 cpu..but another chart show del 100 Mhz cpu clock. i'm confused..

Anyone has succesfully installed cpu beyond the 486 66 dx2? Thanks for the help!!

That board appears not to have a voltage regulator so it is 5V CPUs only.

well, the manual reports a jumper setting for cpu of 100 MHz,
Wich cpu is running @100 Mhz and feeded by 5v?

Hm i posted in another thread about my TI 486DX which if i'm correct is essentially a cyrix.
The board i wanted to try it on detects which voltage is needed but it gave this TI 5v. Is TI/Cx not capable of this feature?
