SEALTEAMTHREE 12-13-2001, 06:42 PM There's the tyan tiger mobo's that run Athlon MP's. (see www.tyan.com). Be warned, having dual CPU's does not mean you have the CPU speed times two. If you use two 1900+ Athlons (I don't think Athlon XP's run dual-you'll have to get Athlon MP 1900+'s) you'll have two CPU's that run at 1.6 GHz each (because an Athlon 1900+ is a 1.6 GHz core that runs the equivalence of a P4 1.9 GHz). The advantage is, you can set one CPU to run windows and other background apps, while the other runs your game (or other CPU intensive application) meaning you have one completely open CPU for your game. You'll also be "the man" at a LAN party, because you'll be able to run a dedicated server and play at the same time (but not in the same game that you're hosting). SysOpt.com
