Jim, RE: <Dual Durons? Most of the benches I saw yesterday had a single 1.2 Athlon beating a dual Duron 850 set up soundly. Why would someone want a dual Duron system?> Overclock the heck out of a pair of Duron 950s and stick them to the MP board? Just treat them like Celeron 300a? panic

Jim: As Alan Smith says at AMDZONE, a dual Duron System would mean "affordable SMP for the masses"

Jim a follow up on Dual Durons and why: From the Anandtech article- This echos AmdZone's commentary Another golden nugget to keep an eye on is the Duron. If AMD can ramp up the speed of the Duron, it would make for a great low-cost DB server platform; especially if 760MPX motherboards eventually hit the $200 price point
