ASUS S370-DL Installation Guide

Introduction
The ASUS S370-DL CPU card allows Slot 1 motherboards to accept socket
370 processors with Front Side Bus running at up to 133MHz. The S370-
DL CPU card supports single Coppermine/Celeron and dual Coppermine/
Celeron (PPGA only) processors to give Slot 1 motherboard owners an
inexpensive way to upgrade their Pentium II/III computers using lower
costing socket 370 processors. Since socket 370 processors are designed
on the Pentium II/III design, the only difference is the package form fac-
tor. Additionally, the S370-DL CPU card can acquire temperature data
from the processor’s thermal diode and send it to the motherboard that
supports CPU thermal monitoring.
The following page displays a picture of the ASUS S370-DL CPU card with
black plastic retainers attached to the edges. The retainers are used to hold
the ASUS S370-DL CPU card in place using the motherboard’s Slot 1 re-
tention mechanisms.
