3.6.7 ASUS Smart Thermal Solutions
ASUS provides two smart solutions to Slot 1 CPU thermal problems: the ASUS
Smart Fan or ASUS S-P2FAN and the ASUS P2T-Cable.
ASUS S-P2FAN
The optional ASUS Smart Fan or
ASUS S-P2FAN is a CPU fan for a
Pentium
®
II processor packaged in
an SECC. Unlike other CPU thermal
solutions, the ASUS S-P2FAN has
an integrated thermal sensor located
near the center of the CPU heat
source. The sensor is optimized by ASUS to give the most accurate reading of the
CPU temperature, thus provides the best protection to your computer system.
To Use the ASUS S-P2FAN
See 3.6.2 Attaching the Heatsink for the relevant procedures. Note that the S-P2FAN
comes with a rock arm design for easy FAN/CPU installation.

To Use the ASUS P2T-Cable
1. Simply peel off the tab from the sensor and then stick the sensor near the middle
edge of the Intel boxed processor heatsink with fan (middle) or to either the
upper or lower edge of the Celeron™ heatsink (right).
2. Connect the P2T-Cable to the CPU thermal sensor connector (JTCPU).
