About This Manual
This manual is written for system houses, PC technicians and
knowledgeable PC end users. It provides information for the installation and
use of the SUPER P6DBS/P6DBE/P6DBU/P6SBU/P6SBS/P6SBA/P6SBM
motherboard. The SUPER P6DBS/P6DBE/P6DBU/P6SBU/P6SBS/P6SBA/
P6SBM supports Celeron

II 233-450 MHz
and 100 MHz FSB speed Pentium III processors up to 700 MHz. (*Note:
Currently, SUPER P6DBE/P6DBU/P6SBU/P6SBA motherboard supports CPU
speeds up to 1GHz with 100MHz FSB speed.)
Pentium III and II processors with the Dual Independent Bus Architecture are
housed in a new package technology called a Single Edge Contact Cartridge
(S.E.C.C.) . This cartridge package and its associated "Slot 1" infrastructure
will provide the headroom for future high-performance processors. Celeron
processors that are packaged in the SEPP (Single Edge Processor Package)
cartridge are also supported by these boards.
