Upgrading the Second-Level Cache

The 486 CPU board has a standard 256 KB of cache memory expandable to
1 MB. The cache memory is a high-speed buffer between the main memory
and the CPU. It stores frequently-used instructions and data, greatly reducing
the CPU memory access time and ultimately improves system performance.
NOTE:

change the 486 CPU board with a Pentium CPU board.

board for more information.
