Installing the Processor

This mainboard has a Socket 370 processor socket. To choose
a processor, you need to consider the performance require-
ments of the system and 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.
