Install the Processor

This mainboard has a Socket-370 processor socket. To choose a
processor, you need to consider the performance requirements of the
system and also the price of the processor. Performance is based on the
processor design, the clock speed and system bus frequency of the
processor, and the quantity of internal cache memory and external cache
memory. Higher clock speeds and larger amounts of cache memory
deliver greater performance.
About Socket-370 Processors
The socket-370 on this board currently supports PPGA Intel Celeron
processors.
Intel PPGA Celeron
PPGA stands for Plastic Pin Grid Array. This is a description of the
square plastic package that the processor is embedded in. The PPGA
Celeron is identical to the SEPP Celeron, except for the external
packaging. PPGA Celerons run at clock speeds from 300 MHz through
to 533 MHz. All the current PPGA Celerons operate over a 66 MHz
system bus. The PPGA Celeron is less expensive than a SEPP Celeron
with the same clock speed.
New Processors
This board is designed to support some future processors that have not
yet been released. Ask your mainboard vendor for an up-to-date list of
processors that can be installed on this mainboard.
