Is the New Coppemines Duallable?

[Missing the point]

?????


I want to make a dual Celeron II 566 overclocked to 900+, and I was wondering if the new Celerons can go on a dually mobo?

To my knowledge, it was found that the new Celerons do not work in dual configurations, but I have no source to back it up.

I think I read it on Slashdot a few weeks back.

I'll see if I can find the source again.

I appears not at this time. It is now beleived that Intel finally cut the trace routes from the cpu's core to the pins that control the SMP signal. Looks like you have to go with Coppermines instead.

PS - The guys at www.hardocp.com (http://www.hardocp.com) have already tried it with a bp6 an two powerleap flip-chip convertors. They could't not even get it to boot with 2 C-II's in place.
