Scumbria, <The traditional concept of putting multiple CPU's on a motherboard is not as important as it used to be.> Obviously, a few people in my department may have something to say about that. Heck, even AnandTech is using multiple processors on a motherboard for their custom-built back-end database servers. Think about how much more the needs of large corporations must be. Tenchusatsu

Scumbria, Re: The chipset is called ethernet. Most massively parallel machines make extensive use of network communications between processors. No, the bus between them is called ethernet. But will still need 'Scumbria' to schedule the jobs, coping data among them and lots of other things. In fact, this is more than a chipset function but including some work that is usually done by Microsoft <G>. Of course there is limitations like during night time, 'Scumbria' will most probably in deep sleep mode and won't do anything :-) gary
