Just got a really dumb question...
I'm looking for a mainboard that is already out or that might be out someday. This is about what I'm looking for. Also, if you know, let me know how possible it is for such a board to be made. Here we go...
Dual AMD Athlon processor
2 AGP slots
4 PCI slots
2 ISA slots
at least 2MB cache
at least 200mhz bus speed
able to install 1Gig of PC-133 or better ram
think of anything else and times it by 2, that's about what I'm looking for--the more power the better. Is this kind of board possible??? I'm mostly interested in the
2 AMD Athlons and 2AGP slots. Let me know. Thanks.

There isn't a board made with two AGPs that I have seen. Dual Athlon mobos will have to wait also. They are only now trying to put out high performance single Athlon mobos.

Yeah, unfortunately, AMD has offered little support to mobo makers... currently, all athlon mobos were obsolete before they came out!!!(in comparison with what the chip was designed to support.) The funny thing is, AMD is still kicking Intel tail!!! I have a PIII, but as soon as good mobos come out for the athlon, that will get sold to some poor fool.
