As I reported in an other thread, I recently picked up a low mileage PS/2 Model 30. There is currently a D8087 coprocessor installed (see pic below). I have checked it with 87test and it passes all stress tests with flying colours. Nevertheless, unless I am mistaken the D8087 runs at 5MHz versus the 8MHz of the 8086. Does that mean the coprocessor is now "overclocked" or is the 8086 now running at 5MHz. If this is no big deal then I will just leave as is, and otherwise I will source a D8087-1 which will always be ok.
Would much appreciate your thoughts on the coprocessor please!
