Hi

I have a dual system right now i'm running dual 450's slot 1. Its the supermicro P6DBU only support 66 and 100MHz bus. I decided that I want to upgrade so I ordered 2 PIII 900's (100mhz bus)fcpga chips (there on specail for 200 at tigerdirect). Both are comming with a fan and conveter card...I don't know which card though.

I've been reading up on the slocket cards and am finding mixed results...at first you couldn't do a dual system this way and then there was a fix for the iwill II card and now supposidley some card support it...Is this a correct assumption? I gueess I have to wait for my order to come into find out what card it is....

Any help or links would be appreciated...also can the 900's do dual processing???

<< also can the 900's do dual processing??? >>


the intel Sspec says they're all cCO so yes, they are SMP capable.
as for convertor card, the only one which immediately springs to mind is the asus S370-DL. I'm sure there are others but asus is at the top of my mind!
