Dual core and dual processors

[Natedog]

Does ANYONE make a Dual processor LGA775 board that accepts pentium D processors? I need dual core and dual processors.

Not possible with the P-D. Intel does not currently make dual socket capable dual core chips because of how they hacked the P-D together. They'll be coming out with one eventually though.

In the meantime, I believe you have to get an Opteron or make do with "only" 2 processors.

i thought i read somewhere that intel has a dual core dual processor w/ HT enabled.... or was i just dreaming of that ? now i cant remember....... lol

The 840EE has HT.

EDIT: I misread what you said. The xeons are going to be dual core with ht sometime soon.

Yes, actually it´s the only P-D with HT. But the price for this processor is not normal.

Plus its single socket only since its still a Smithfield.

Wow !

Imagine 2 x Pentium D on a motherboard !

They run HOT even with a zalman 7700cu...

Could a motherboard survive @ 2x dual core intel ? :stick:
:p:

You mean power supply ;) Pushing close to 400w on the CPUs full load

Lol Motherboard makers would be moving vcore supplies out of case like the late model 3dfx cards.

Socket 480 supports mobile dual core and dual CPU

This board exists, NAPA.

We should start to see first sightings next month.

Is it a desktop board for Pentium M processors?

Its for Yonah and its variants. I don't know if any of the P-M processors will support 2 sockets, I kind of doubt it though. Probably you'll have to buy low power Xeons if you want 2x socket 480.
