S370 Series Cpu Cards - Asus P3C2000 User Manual

7.2 S370 Series CPU Cards

The optional ASUS S370 Series CPU Cards allow Slot 1 motherboards to accept
socket 370 processors. The ASUS S370 Series CPU Cards give Slot 1 motherboard
owners an inexpensive way to upgrade their Pentium II computers using lower cost-
ing socket 370 processors. Since socket 370 processors are based on the Pentium II
design, the only difference is the connector and the amount of internal cache within
the processor.
The following are the current ASUS S370 Series CPU Cards with black plastic
retainers attached to the edge. The retainer fins are used to hold the ASUS S370
Series CPU Cards in place using the motherboard's Slot 1 retention mechanisms.
NOTE: The ASUS S370, S370-L, and S370-D can only support 100MHz FSB.
The ASUS S370-133 (not shown), which supports 133MHz FSB, should be used
for FC-PGA (Flip-Chip Pin Grid Array) Coppermine processors.
