This AMD CPU will be a tough nut to crack! No, this CPU is not from the scrapyard - I bought this poor thing on eBay. It is one of the fastest 486 CPUs that is available for the socket 3 platform. In todays video, I will try to restore this CPU to complete the final tests of Tomb Raider in software mode, provided the CPU works.
