Actually the BX chipset is always better than the i815 for dual use, Tom tested that dually i815 board and it lost against a (cough) VIA (choke, choke) dually board. Basically the i815 was never designed for use in dual processor configuration. It's also limited to 512MB RAM. My suggestion is, if you need newer features than the BX has to offer, get an i840 board. If you need sockets, get two slotkets.
