About the Tualatin Celly

[Mictlan]

Anyone has tried to run this new cellerons in a dual motherboard?

Seems to me that Intel just decreased the FSB of this babies from the Tualatin PIII. If so, maybe they didn't disable the SMP capabitity..... Anyone?

Are there actual dual boards that are compatible with this new chip?

If so, I haven't seen them yet. I'm sure they'll be around soon, the Tualatin is a great chip for a dual system....

MSI makes a dual fcpga2 board.

No more dual boards rather than that? :p

[funnyperson1]

i think a saw an ASUS Dual Tually Board, i believe it had a ALi DDR chipset...TUA266 or some thing.....also i dunno bout the dual Cellys intel has since the days of coopermines disabled celeron smpo.....

[Yodums]

... haha I coulda sworn I came across something like that when I was searching for an Asus Board .

[Mictlan]

There are several dual PIII mobos compatible with the Tualatim core. Mainly based on VIA's Apollo 133T or 266T chipset or with ALI T chipsets.

But if the Cellys are not SMP capable then don't bother. Your only choice will be the PIII-S chips.

Supermicro also makes a dually tualatin board.

The box says Uni-processor, so it's not dual-capable.

Go nuts and get 2 of the P3-S chips. :D

It would be interesting for somebody to try duals with
those 1.2g cellys though.

On Intel's S-Spec page, it claims my P3-S chip is for
dual use only and wont run in a single cpu board, which
is a blatant lie.

Perhaps they are just failing to mention any SMP support for
those Cellys........:eek:

Hey 6502kid---
Need your input, since you've got first-hand experience with the P3-S. I've acquired one myself....which MoBo are you using? Would you recommend something different than what you have now? Appreciate any help...

I guess anything's possible, but it does say "Supports Uni-Processing only" in plain lettering on the back of the box (in the list of features). This may only be true if they failed to get it running on all systems, but I think that's the cripple they put on these chips (along with the 100mhz bus).

Pinky,

You are probably right, but I dont hardly believe anything
anymore unless I see it myself.
i.e. I wouldn't bet money that it wouldn't work.

Guy1,

I will shoot you an email with my system specs and
some other notes.

I am using the Soyo SY-TISU motherboard.
:D

Seems like the P3-S has some good overclocking performance?
Whats the price difference between that and the Tually?

[ol' man]

About $400 bucks. Those server chips are not cheap unless you go with the 1.13GHz chip. It is a little cheaper I think.

[Yodums]

LOL OK Nevermind then.. Damn :/

[radadman]

My shopping list:
tyan dual tiger mobo with univ. 370 under $100
2 celerys 1.2GHz $240
The tualatin celerys will smp!
15,000 MIPS machine easy!

only one problem I"M broke now!

[Yodums]

I'm guessing Intel didn't put it was MP compatible since it might have not worked with all boards or something as Pinky mentioned.

<Up we go...>

I'm planning to buy second-hand Dual Slot-1 motherboard (A-Open DX6G Plus, http://www.aopen.com/products/server/dx6gplus.htm ) and before that I would like to know:

1) Could someone confirm that Tualatin-Celerons actually work in SMP mode?

2) Does Powerleap iP3T FCPGA2-Slot1 adapter work with that A-Open mb?

3) If both above are induvidially true, could dual Celelon-T with Powerleap adapters setup really work?

[airsquid]

NO SMP ON CELEY TUALY
