3796.0. "433sxDT Upgrade Options??" by WOTVAX::KERRAY (RON KERRAY @EDO) Mon Mar 17 1997 11:32

    I have been quoted �179 for a P23t Overdrive upgrade for my 
    Digital 433sxDT (aka Olivetti M6-420).
    
    Does anyone know of a cheaper source/solution ??
    
    Also, looking at the Intel pages the M6-420 is not supported with the
    Pentium -- has anyone tried this upgrade?? (The documentation says the
    system is ready for the Intel P24 overdrive)
    
    Can anyone help?
    
    regards,

The P24T is supported in the following platforms:

DECpc LPx
DECpc LPx+
DECpc MTE 
DECpc XL
Venturis 4XXX

Some of these systems have limitations--you can check the
Engineering support home page for more details at:

http://pcbu.ako.dec.com/

The information is listed under "TECHTIPS" in the DECpc XL
section.

A cheaper alternative for the 63/83 POD would be the Intel
4100. In some situations it may even provide a bit more
performance.

Any configurations with other CPU brands, such as AMD, may
work, but is not supported.
