Dual head socket 939 X2 Motherboards?

[John15v17]

Does anyone know of a motherboard that is a dual head socket 939 that supports the Athlon X2 processors? I am interested in getting "quad" core performance at a reasonable price.

Hmmmm, no.

I do not think the X2's nor Opteron 1xx series support quad CPU linking.
The Opteron 2xx's do tho.

Tyan makes decent dual and quad 940 pin boards, which support dual cores 2-way or 4-way.

Why do you need quad-core to begin with? unless you want to pay premium for super-powerful quad core performance and registered memory (not to mention a high-end server motherboard), it is really not worth it for anything other than highly specialized applications. by the way, 2 cores is plenty for gaming, there isn't much benifit you can gain from 4 cores unless you plan on playing three games at once or running a LOT of crap in the background or specialized server programs. If you absolutely need quad core smoothness with a smaller-than-server budget, you might want to consider going with a pentium 4 extreme edition with hyperthreading which will have 4 logic processors but not true quad core performance. (this kind of defeats the point though, considering those stupid things cost as much as an fx60)
