I'm new to dual-core technology, and I was hoping you guys might be able to offer a Noob some insight. Ok, here goes:
(1) Is it possible to run two FX-60 chips (or their Intel counterparts) on the same motherboard? If not, do you think it will be possible in the near future?
(2) Would you need an OS other than the standard Windows XP Professional?
(3)Would the SMP coding that some games are utilizing (E.g. Quake 4, Call of Duty 2, etc.) take advantage of two dual-core CPU's?
I'm sorry for the barage of questions, I'm just new to this area. Dual-core technology is the first advance I've seen in a long time that real grabbed my attention. I'm excited to see what the future has in store.
Regards,
Ben
