A friend of mine picked up an ALR BusinessVEISA desktop system, rather like the one in another thread here, but with a 486DX-25 on the CPU card, and without a cache module card.
Would it be worth attempting to put a 486DX2-66 on that card? There should be enough room that the HSF should not present any mechanical interference with the next card (although he'd lose the ability to add an external cache card). I've got a 486SX2-66 I could try on it just as a proof of concept, but wonder if the lack of L2 cache would preclude doing anything but the very lightest retrogaming (for example: No Doom, Quake, or Wing Commander 3).
Cool-looking case, though...
