WARNING! Because CPU designs change rapidly, the table below is only in-
tended as a simple guideline and thus may not be true for your CPU. Always
refer to the CPU documentation for your CPU’s voltage and then set the appro-
priate VID jumpers according to the illustration below.

Compatible Cyrix CPU Identification
The only Cyrix CPU that is supported on this motherboard is
labeled Cyrix 6x86-PR166+ but must be Revision 2.7 or later.
Look on the underside of the CPU for the serial number. The
number should read G8DC6620A or later.
