Scumbria-- It's worse than that. The 1 GHz Xeons are only certified for 2 cpus at once and aren't the large cache versions either. This release, of course, has nothing to do with Mustang and the AMD 760. btw, are you certain that the new technology is not related to the new "THermally Accelerated Workstation" (THAW) technology Intel will be soon announcing?

Scumbria, Re: It is not easy keeping 4 CPU's putting out 50W each at 60C in a 55C ambient box. ;^))

Would this also be part of the reason why there isn't any SMP Athlon system yet ?

IT's so difficult that AMD STILL hasn't been able to accomplish it.

Where's all that great AMD engineering going?
