QMike the K5 133 is a 486 running at 133Mhz ,PERIOD. It is the
Qequivalent to an Intel 586 running at 75Mhz. You can buy a 486
QPCI motherboard and an AMD K5 for about the price of a good 
Q586 motherboard. I have built 6-7 of these systems for  clients, 
Qmost of whom were upgrading their system. If you have been using
Qa 486 X 66 then this puppy will blow that system away. If you have the
Qcoins then get an Intel 133Mhz, just a little more expensive than the
Qslower chips but not the big jump price wise to the 166mhz. No matter
Qwhich way you go, get a PCI video card if you can.

  Oh please go and find out about things Well. The last few days much of my time
   to find out that the K5 is a Pentium grade and the 5x86 is 486 plug compatible!
    You have to be plugging the K5 into 486's by some magical process of _______  OR 
    what !!!
