Back in the mid 1990's, before the Pentium era, Intel (and to be fair, AMD) produce a chip known as the 80486 DX4. The chip, at the time was considered to be quite fast - and compared to previous chips, they were very quick. The chip came in various speeds - 75 MHz, 100 MHz and 133 MHz (AMD). That's right - Megahertz - not Gigahertz.

Of course, compared to today's monster dual, triple, quad and hex core chips, the DX4 series is little more than a quaint footnote in computing history.

That's NOT to say it shouldn't be immortalized.

In the eastern region of Artamark, the Temple Guardian has a class quest that requires that he visit a cave. Inside the cave, there are two T-Energy consoles and a Temple Guardian named DX4-100:
