celeron fcpga 370 smp

[Guest]

does anyone know if it is possiable to mod a celeron fcpga 900mhz/100fsb to make it run in a smp . any ideas on this would be greatly welcomed.

you can try the <A HREF="http://www.friendtech.com/PIII.htm" target="_new">Powerleap FCPGA to Slot 1 adapter</A> along with the Asus P2B-D series boards. This convertor is SMP compliant and should (although not stated so) run the Celeron 900.

native socket370 SMP celeron solutions are too hard to find. maybe you will need to modify the Celeron processor pins, I read it somewhere but cant recall.

I've been told by my sources at Intel that the Celeron has SMP disabled. But he didn't say how.
The Celeron starts it's life as a PIII and then, if it fails the cache test on one side, the connections are blown on that side. So it wouldn't surprize me if the did a similar thing with a communications link that lets two processors communincate.
