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 1motherboardowners aninexpensiveway toupgradetheir 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.

Using the S370 Series CPU Cards
The general procedure for using the ASUS S370 Series CPU cards:
1. Check the voltage setting for your socket 370 processor using the jump-
ers on the card if necessary. For current socket 370 processors, the de-
fault setting should be used.
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. Install the CPU fan.
4. Insert theASUS S370 Series CPU cards into Slot 1 on the motherboard.
The two fins on the sides of the ASUS S370 Series CPU cards must
catch on the retention mechanism so that it locks in place.
5. Connect the socket 370 processor’s fan connector to the motherboard.
6. Make sure that nowiresor objects come in contact withthe fan and you’re
done!

Setting up the S370 Series CPU Cards
Setting the CPU voltage is not necessary for current socket 370 processors.
If required, your socket 370 processor should have its voltage requirement
printed on its surface or documentation. If no voltage is indicated or you are
not sure, use the “CPU Def.”setting as shown below. Notice that JP6 should
be set for the S370-133 CPU card to distinguish between Coppermine and
Celeron processors. The S370-L CPU card can automatically distinguish
these two types of CPU.
WARNING! Exceeding your socket 370 processor’s required voltage
can damage your processor permanently! Make sure that the jumpers are
as shown for “CPU Def.”unless otherwise specified before powering on
your motherboard.
