2 ASUS S370 Series Installation Guide
Introduction
The ASUS S370 Series CPU cards allow Slot 1 motherboards to accept socket
370 processors with Front Side Bus running at up to 133MHz. The ASUS
S370 Series CPU cards support both Coppermine and Celeron 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 factor. Additionally, the S370 Series CPU cards can ac-
quire temperature data from the processor’s thermal diode and send it to the
motherboard that supports CPU thermal monitoring.
The following are pictures of the ASUS S370 Series CPU cards with black
plastic retainers attached to the edges. The retainers are used to hold the
ASUS S370 Series CPU cards in place using the motherboard’s Slot 1 re-
tention mechanisms.
