how to decrease voltage in ASUS CUSL2-C ???

[pubLicEnemy]

i have a cusl2-c and it supports min 1.75V and i can't use a 1.475V coppermine PIII. will an update for bios solve this problem? and whats PIII 1A ghz??? a celeron or tualatin? will TUSL2-C support this chip? thank you...

There is no way the CUSL2-C supports a min. of 1.75V... a Coppermine 600 is like 1.65V and I think even upto 1.0GHz it is 1.70V (my 933 is)
where are you looking to see that it supports 1.75 minimum because it definitely should support less, the board is designed for the coppermine.. hence: (CUSL - CopperMine Solano chipset)

A TUSL2-C is basically the same mobo except it has Tualitin support, there may be a few other things, but thats the main difference between the 2.. it will definitely take a coppermine CPU or a celeron coppermine CPU.

but what about the 1A ghz PIII? does TUSL2-C support it? and does it support smaller voltages?

A 1.475 PIII is a Tualatin, not a Coppermine. CUSL2 does not support Tualatin CPU's. The TUSL2 does. If you have a CUSL2 and want to run a PIII 1GHz, just use the Coppermine version. If you want a Tualatin setup, you are better off getting the 1.0A Celeron (100 MHz FSB) type and overclocking it to a 133 MHz FSB. It will be cheaper and faster.
