Dual AMD64 motherboard?

[zbc1998]

Does anyone know of a motherboard that supports a dual AMD 64 setup?

A64s don't have a coherent HT link necessary for mulitprocessor operation. They are physically disabled and beyond the end-user's ability to enable.

Thanks for the reply good info to know

For a dual AMD64 motherboard, you can go look at any dual S940 Opteron board. (You said AMD64 and not specifically A64/Athlon 64. I still perfectly understand what you meant, though)

Second all of the above, you'll have to go Opteron.

Or wait for dual core

Opterons.

Could you use the A64 s940's in dual mode?

The 940 FX-51 and FX-53, you mean? I know Maximum PC tried to do it with double 51s and IIRC they failed, so I don't think so.

That's because /those/ Athlon64-FX are actually 100 series Opterons - no inter-CPU hypertransport link on those.
