Can't speak for Clive but my motherboard is set up for a Cyrix processor 
as per the manual. According to the Cyrix Home pages, this still shouldn't 
affect the basic speed of the processor, you just won't be taking advantage 
of the Cyrix specific functions. As for the memory speed, shouldn't this 
just slow down system speed rather than processor speed ? I have booted 
the motherboard with various memory configurations and it makes no difference.

Thanks for the interest ,
