Title :
Delivering next-generation performance on today´s installed computer base
Abstract :
The Cyrix M1 architecture is a revolutionary advancement of the x86 family of Cyrix microprocessors, utilizing both superscalar and superpipelined technologies to achieve high performance. The architecture not only overcomes such performance barriers as data dependencies, change-of-flow instructions and resource conflicts, but also brings the end user a superior performance advantage without the added cost of purchasing recompiled software. As the desktop PC takes on more and more sophisticated tasks, Cyrix continues to provide microprocessor solutions that bring cost-effective power to the end user.<>
