Pravin, one thing I take away from that page is this: The AMD talk summary implies that current Athlons are NOT multiprocessor capable, and that certain "enhancements" to the cache were necessary to enable this. I guess this means that Mustang will be SMP-capable, but Tbirds are not? Doug --snip-- AMD's Athlon: Architectural Enhancements for Advanced Multiprocessing Systems Rich Heye - VP and GM, Advanced Micro Devices, Texas Microprocessor Division This presentation discusses multiprocessing enhancements to the AMD Athlon processor's internal cache as well as the challenges and design tradeoffs required to make multiple hyper-GHz processors work in tandem.
