Re: "I agree. No wonder AMD has to depend upon other vendors to build chipsets. I wonder sometimes how AMD lucked into getting the 750 chipset to even run."

In all fairness, I think this just shows how difficult it is to get things right. I've seen Intel's validation labs. Rows and rows of systems running everything conceivable day and night for months and still they can miss something. Intel certainly has had it's problems. Why should it be easier for AMD?

Multi-processor chip record

Start of next yearly plans AMD besides a dual CPU version of the DDR chip record. With the 760MP one wants to then mix together also in the lucrative workstation and server market. As one of the first Main board companies Tyan has the development of an appropriate board admits given.

The dual Athlon board Tyan S2567 should already shortly be available.

Looks like it won't be too much of a delay.
