DX2
A clock-doubled 486 CPU. The internal speed was doubled without changing the chip's external connections. For example, the 486DX2/66 had an internal speed of 66 MHz, while its external bus from the CPU to RAM ran at 33 MHz. See Speed Doubler and iCOMP.

     DX2 CPU       Internal    External
     486DX2/66     66 MHz      33 MHz
     486DX2/50     50 MHz      25 MHz
     486DX/50      50 MHz      50 MHz

     DX4 CPU       Internal    External
     486DX4/75     75 MHz      25 MHz

80486DX2 The 486DX2 was a peculiar chip that ran internally twice as fast the external system.
Although lesser machines will technically run the software, CPAS would be wise to have at least a 486DX2 66Mhz computer with 16MBs random access memory (RAM) before installing it.
If you are also operating a CD-ROM, you may want to move up to a 486DX2 Intel processor or better.
