They can clock 486 to much higher frequency.

Intel powers an Arduino Posted Oct 8, 2013 5:53 UTC (Tue) by khim (subscriber, #9252) [Link] Probably. But they are not doing that: this thing is only clocked @ 400MHz. If it's Pentium then 400MHz is in “not superfast, but faster than many others” ballpack, if it's 80486 then it's in “WTF?” ballpack. Adruino says it's 400MHz 32-bit Intel® Pentium instruction set architecture (ISA)-compatible processor o 16 KBytes on-die L1 cache which does not say us much: 80846 and Pentium has very little difference from is ISA POV and later models of both had 16 KByte cache thus 80486 looks plausible, too.
