thanks for the info mr reporter

It'll be nice when the AMD760MP finally surfaces.

 

[DARRIN]

Dual 1.2's would be sweet.

 

[Ashpool]

When the chipset comes out, dual 1.5's will be sweeter.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... dual athlons... dual onboard 10/100 NICs... dual onboard Ultra 160... 64 bit PCI... must control myself...

 

[MadRat]

MPU? Wtf is this MPC garbage? Gag me.

 

[Thor_Sevan]

Wwaaaaaahhhhoooo !!!!! That WILL rock !!!

Hehe !
Viva AMD !

THor

 

[Howard]

MPU = Microprocessing Unit?

 

[shiznut123]

Ohhhh...*drool* I gotta save up big time now

 

[Hanpan]

Damm things are looking worse for intel every minute.

From the article

"Intel's MPU business is worse than the company is admitting."

 

[AncientPC]

I'd love to have dual Athlon's but I doubt my budget will ever let me have them.

 

[MadRat]

Stock warnings issued yesterday on Intel stock.

I'd hate to have my pension sitting in Intel stock...

Too bad he didn't post it here either

I want my dual AMD system!!

 

[squirrelman]

Poor AMD got downgraded this morning. Oh well i still like the fact that in the last 6 months intel has lost a lot more on stock price than AMD

 

[NFS4]

Could you imagine the heat generated by dual thunderbirds?:Q

 

[MichaelD]

Thanks NFS4! How do you dig this stuff up? I want my dual Athlon board! Tee-hee-hee...I can see it now; dual 1.2's (or 1.5's for that matter!) Run SANDRA CPU benchmark and the bars are waaay off the screen. Schaweeeeet!

On a related note, do you guys think the new Dual-Athlon boards will be DDR boards? I guess that's where everything is headed, right?

 

[Adul]

If it is anything like those HP workstation here, then it is going to be a space heater.

I saw the link over at chip geek

760 has taken way too long. I'm betting it has at least as many problems as 750.

[MikeO]

This is all good news! Go AMD! Intel really starts to have some thinking to do

 

[Remnant2]

that's funny Bart, my 750 sitting right here hasn't had any problems at all.

seriously, 760 is already out, I'm sure you're thinking of 760MP. This has been atrociously delayed -- it was supposed to be out long, long ago. The northbridge has got to have one monster of a pin-out, probably what's taking so long to engineer the motherboards for it..

But all of the rumors and leaked bits of info have pointed to Dual Athys being a real screamer.

 

[Howard]

Doesn't the 760 provide support for DDR memory? If so, I don't think it's out yet (at least the motherboards using it aren't).

 

[NFS4]

The 760 has been out for months...some people on the BBS even have them.

 

[Snoop]

Yuk, yes the 760 is a DDR platform, and they are selling them HERE
