What I can remember is that it had many logic
chips on board but I can't recall whether it had chip
sets or not. Unluckly I dumped it years ago... Could
somebody give me an answer?

The earliest 386 designs were modifications to existing 286 ones
that did not use chip sets. Chips and Technologies was one of the
first companies to integrate the functions onto ASICs.
The design I remember was sold by Everex and also used by Novell
and was all DIP ICs which had the memory on a separate plugin
board with a very wide edge connector (DIPs, later SIMMs).
