The ASUS S370 CPU Card

The optional ASUS S370 CPU card allows Slot 1 motherboards to accept socket 370

processors. The ASUS S370 CPU card gives Slot 1 motherboard owners an inexpen-

sive way to upgrade their Pentium II computers using lower costing socket 370 pro-

cessors. 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 picture shows the ASUS S370 CPU card with a plastic retainer at-

tached to the edge. The retainer is used to hold the ASUS S370 CPU card in place

using the motherboard’s Slot 1 retention mechanism.

Using the ASUS S370

The general procedure for using the ASUS S370 CPU card:

1. Check the voltage setting for your socket 370 processor using the jumpers on

the card if necessary. For current socket 370 processors, the default setting should

be used. See the reverse side of the ASUS S370 CPU card or the next page for

voltage settings.

2. Install the socket 370 processor. Installation of socket 370 processors is exactly

like socket 7 processors. Lift the brown lever to 90° to install the processor and

lower the brown lever to lock the processor.

3. Insert the ASUS S370 CPU card into Slot 1 on the motherboard. The two fins

on the sides of the ASUS S370 CPU card must catch on the retention mecha-

nism so that it locks in place.

4. Connect the socket 370 processor’s fan connector to the motherboard.

5. Make sure that no wires or objects come in contact with the fan.
