Installing and Removing the Pentium
II/III Xeon Processors
Intel
Pentium II/III Xeon CPU is a Slot 2 (SC-330) processor that
uses a 330-pin single edge connector which is a bit longer that a Slot
1 processor. Other than the size, the major improvement of the Slot 2
processor is at the L2 cache. Pentium II/III Xeon processors access
the L2 cache at full clock speed, up to 550MHz and possible higher
frequencies, whereas a Slot 1 processor accesses the L2 at only half
the CPU
clock speed. This significantly boosts performance and
speed.

Installing the Retention Mechanisms
Follow these steps to install the retention mechanisms:
1.
Attach both the retention mechanisms with the joint bar. Snap-in
the joint bar on both sides of each retention mechanism.

Inserting the joint bar into the Retention Mechanisms
2.
Insert both retention mechanisms into the Slot 2 sockets. Make
sure that the shafts of the retention mechanisms with a O sign are
facing the external ports of the system board.
