Some clues: A 486DX2-50 cpu runs internally on 50MHz, but externally on 25 MHz,so
if you compare the things that depend on the bus speed, like reading memory,
using disks, etc. you'll find this will have become a twink slower, but
heavy calculations will become faster.

Video speed also depends on the bus speed, so the video also gets slower.

Just some clues,

John van Leeuwen.
