Hello friends !
First of all thank you
to be here!

Now Cyrix 6x86 CPU's
had the property that they were
interpreted by some games as a 486 CPU, ergo patches were needed.
Now you can also use these Cyrix patches with AMD 5x86 socket 3
CPUs, as one user impressively
demonstrates with Final Fantasy VII:

..have it successfully
imitated.
Now you already know what I want to address.
Yes, I've optimized an AMD 5x86 PC, L2-Write Back with full cacheable ram, bios chipset timings and buffers optimized.
This will make many games good with a 3dfx Voodoo1 card. Both with MS- DOS 6.22 and with Win98SE.

Now to the actual question:
Does anyone of you have the Cyrix 6x86 patch for Pygnosis Formula 1 '96 archived ?? (ie not Formula 1 '97).
It is extremely hard to find on the net and if the links are dead.
Would be nice if any of you
have this patch that could upload
here ? 😀
