=== Cyrix 5x86 === In 1995, with its [[Pentium]] clone not yet ready to ship, Cyrix repeated its own history and released the [[Cyrix Cx5x86]] (M1sc), which plugged into a 3.3V 486 socket, ran at 80, 100, 120, or 133 MHz, and yielded performance comparable to that of a Pentium running at 75 MHz. Cyrix 5x86 (M1sc) was a cost-reduced version of the flagship 6x86 (M1). Like Intel's Pentium Overdrive, the Cyrix 5x86 used a 32-bit external data bus. While AMD's [[AMD 5x86|Am5x86]] was little more than a clock-quadrupled 486 with a new name, Cyrix's 5x86 implemented some Pentium-like features.
