The existence of dual socket 939 motherboards...

[Zadock]

Hi all,

I'm almost certain that such a thing does not exist, can anyone confirm? Its ashame because I happen to have two 3500+ CPUs knocking around...

Cheers

Confirmed; the equivalent generation multi-cpu solution uses S940 (I'm typing this on a dual S940 Opteron as we speak). S939 CPUs don't support operation in SMP, hence there are no boards that support this either. S940 was superceded by Socket-F as S939 was superceded by AM2.

Cheers, think I may just make my girlfriend a new PC then... hers is a right pile of junk anything is an improvement!

edit: was thinking of making a little server

A 3500'll still be good for a lot.

Build two computers and run them as a cluster

Or build more, and use them to take over the world! Mwah ha ha ha ha ha!

Sorry.

Yep, go for the replacement girlie puter thing. Valentines day coming up, after all.
