Not all motherboards are created equal. There are some motherboards out
there that are noticibly slower than others event though they use the same
processor running at the same speed. I would think that a 486DX-33 would
be slower than say a 486DX-40. However, if the 486DX-40 is installed in a
crappy motherboard the results could be quite surprising.
