Installing and Removing an Intel Pentium
II Xeon or Pentium III Xeon Processor
Intel's Pentium II Xeon and Pentium III Xeon processors are Slot 2 processors that
use a 330-pin single edge connector which is a bit longer than a Slot 1 processor.
Other than the size, the major improvement of the Slot 2 processor is at the L2
cache. Pentium II Xeon and Pentium III Xeon processors access the L2 cache at
full clock speed, whereas a Slot 1 processor accesses the L2 at only half the CPU's
clock speed. This significantly boosts performance and speed.
