Math coprocessor

You automatically install a math coprocessor when you upgrade your system with a 486DX microprocessor, because the coprocessor is built into the 486DX chip.

Memory

By adding 1MB, 4MB, 8MB, and 16MB SIMMs (single inline memory modules) to the main system board, you can expand the computer’s memory up to 32MB.

Your system also supports video memory upgrades to 1MB and cache memory upgrades of either 32KB or 128KB.

Drives

Your system can support up to three internal mass storage devices, including hard disk drives, diskette drives, a tape drive, or a CD-ROM drive. As your storage needs expand, you can install additional drives.
