7.1 S370 Series CPU Cards

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 mother-
board 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 acquire temperature data from the processor’s ther-
mal 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 retention mechanisms.
