Those fake cache 486 boards actually do work well

will even use a real cache DIMM if you install it. The major problem
with PC Chips is they used 3rd party chipsets that were not exactly the
fastest out there (BX named chipsets people confused with the Intel
variety on P2's for example).
I've still got two Socket-7 systems made by PCChips under the Amptron
brand. They work respectably well and have no issues, so I wouldn't
call them junk; just dicey on the disclosure of what's really on the
motherboard. They run Win2K pretty well, as well various Linuces and
Win9x. At one time, I think I had one loaded up with Windows XP.
