wait for the AMD760MP chipset (~July) before you can run dual Athlons. -------- I have not yet begun to procrastinate. i read on the german toms hadware that gigabyte has a dual athlon board out but i could of miss interpreted it They are not available...

dual athlon board: Tyan Thunder K7 S2462. Some details of the Tyan Thunder K7 S2462 Dual Socket A Athlon , AMD 760MP chipset DDR memory up to 4GB, ECC supported, PC-1600 or PC-2100 Integrated Adaptec 7899 Dual channel Ultra 160/m SCSI-3 controllers Integrated...

in ~prestige~. I would rather have a Modena than a Porsche. If you have the money to spend on a PIII or even dual PIII 1g, go for it. I personallly would have gone with an DUAL Athlon, I know there isn't any out there available, it's comming soon. of course...

max than p3. Definately go with a dual (P3 unless you can wait until late summer) for 3D Studio MAX! Now a question about the dual Athlon's: Will the dual EV6 (?) bus design on the dual athlon board mean really sweet memory bandwitdh compared to the dual...

the Athlon MPs. AMD technology + Intel technology = Intel/AMD Pentathlon IV; the ULTIMATE PC processor Yes I was, dual athlon MP's 1.2ghz beat dual 1.7p4's in most benchmarks.(I do not recall which hardware site did the review however sorry it was several...

a board now and it'll work fine with the Athlon4. If you want a dual board- I'd wait till all the major manufacturers start pumping them out so there's a price war (making them cheaper). Gigabyte said their dual athlon board will only cost $200- which...

PC, I think I may have one to many fans in it..." Have you looked at Dual Athlon boards + Athlon MP procs? Not sure how good they are for Max. Our company sells to graphics companies. Dont know what software they use, and they only thing they buy is Dual...

rendering speeds on several processors? I'd like to compare my dual 1 GHZ to an Athlon setup. I know I may end up depressed (if not now then definately when dual athlon boards surface). I already had the motherboard and RAM as it was an upgrade and therefore...

1.3GHz Athlon 348 374 --------------- The Athlon's floating point performance is looking rather pathetic. The 1.3GHz P4 beats the 1.33GHz Athlon! The Athlon's integer performance is more robust. Averaging the base and peaks together, the 1.3GHz...

hand I definetly don't want to buy an intel unless I really have to. The task at hand can be multi threaded and it tortures memory bandwidth as much as fpu. What would you suggest, an mp athlon board, an nforce (I can wait a few more months) or a P4? Thanks...
