Dual P3 mainboards?

[Guest]

Greetings,

With AMD soon to release its 760MP chipset to allow for dual Athlon boards, and Intel's release of the Pentium 4, what are the chances of us seeing new dual Pentium 3 boards?

I know that a few of them exist (and have even read TomsHardware's Reviews of them), but the ones I have seen do not have AGP slots.

Or, can someone point me to where I might find a dual FCPGA/PC133 P3 mainboard that has 4x AGP and 64-bit PCI?

Thanks,

I've seen plenty of Dual P3 boards. Go to www.pricewatch.com and look under "processors" and then "dual". I have not seen a dual P3 board w/o AGP 4x. I've seen a few with PCI64.

Thanks. At least I see the Tyan ones with 4xAGP. I am still looking for one that also has PCI64. =)

Thanks again,

Try looking for motherboards with the ServerWorks ServerSet-III-LE chipset. Be prepared for your head to spin when you see the prices though. I think Supermicro makes some...

Apart from the stupid CNR slot instead of 6 PCI slots this one isn't too bad. Dual Socket 370 FC jobbie with 866+ support. Don't expect processing peformanace to double though...espcially with a VIA chipset..
