CPU Options

This motherboard can use any Intel Slot 1 CPU
running at speeds from 233MHz to 733MHz.
These include SECC Celeron, Pentium II and
Pentium III CPUs. The external clock frequency is
automatically detected in the default hardware
configuration. Frequency and voltage controls are
in the Frequency/Voltage Control Section of the
BIOS CMOS Setup Utility.
External clock speeds of 66MHz, 100MHz and
133MHz are available by jumper setting. Note that
not all Slot 1 CPUs support all external speeds.
An incorrect setting can result in CPU failure. The
Autodetect setting prevents this possibility and is
the recommended setting.
