Chuck,

Old news (Samsung chipsets - Caspian and Tasman) but with a little bit updated info -

From C't online -

B>Upwind for Athlon

After Compaq and Samsung Semiconductor affirmed only recently their commitment for the alpha processor, now first fruits of co-operation show up. Samsung wants a dual Processor Chipsatz, which " Caspian " bring on the market, which supports AMDs Athlon apart from the alpha also. First prototypes of the server chip record are to be available in March. The building block exclusively with DDR memory (double DATA rate) to operate, support for RAM bus memory or SDRAM is not intended. As the further step Samsung under the code name " Tasman " plans the production of a 8-Prozessor-Chipsatzes for Athlon and alpha in the year 2001.

First customer for the new chip-corrodes might in each case be Compaq. There one promises oneself from the integration of the Athlon into the own server family an increase of the market share with High end systems. Samsung wants to sell the Caspian and the Tasman in addition, over the wholesale to other Board-und system manufacturer.
