Hi guys,

can you help me identify this slotket, and if you have a manual for it, it will be perfect 😀

it has some settings for manual V-core, so I suppose if I leave the switch in all-off, it will take the Voltage from the board (I HOPE it will take the voltage from the board, cause 1.6V is the least it can supply fro the CPU with manual setting)

One of the other jumpers is for FC-PGA, I suppose, and I'm out of ideas for the rest of the settings

I fail to see any need to say much... so many companies made cheap adapters that are now nothing more than a vague memory finding any info is a real task. That said all the jumper setting are written on the card... The card will REQUEST the motherboard to give it 1.6v, but some boards dont go that low and wont post.

If you google "370 CPU CARD" you will find a review of some slotkets inclusing this one, but the reviewer still calls it an unbranded OEM slotket.

Yep, I read that review - actualy, the picture I posted is from the very same review 😀.

I need some more info on it, cause I hope that in Auto mode, the slotket will take the MB voltage.

Anyway, I got a PowerLeap adapter today.

In Auto Voltage mode the Socket 370 VID pins should be connected to the Slot 1 VID fingers. You can check this with a multimeter.
On a Slot 1 cartridge locate these fingers: VID4=A121, VID3=B119, VID2=A119, VID1=A120, VID0=B120. The Socket 370 VID pin locations: you may search for yourself, if you still care.

The Powerleap is better anyways, a proper slotket needs a voltage clamp chip.
