2.1 Processor

Processor support is for a dual voltage-plane socket 7, for the P54C, P55C and K6. Processor
bus speeds allowed are 60 or 66MHz, and all core multipliers can be set from the main jumper
block PL10. Depending on the processor fitted, the processor bus speed, core multiplier, and
core voltage will have to be correctly set.
