News: Nuovo AMD 760MPX?
Inviato: 11 gen 2003, 00:42<br>Sembra che AMD aggiornerà il chipset 760MPX dedicato ai sistemi dual AMD, in corrispondenza con l'uscita del nuovo Athlon XP basato su core Barton.<br>
Questo perchè il Barton avrà un bus di ben 400mhz, mentre il 760MPX è fermo a 266mhz.
<p><i><blockquote>
WITH AMD'S BARTON set to turn up sometime this quarter (on paper at least), it's rumored that an update to the 760MPX chipset is also in the works. Hopefully so, for while the existing 760MPX is still a fine MP solution, it's also getting dated. While the board's support for a "mere" 266 MHz bus is still serviceable, its single-channel of DDR266 is now eclipsed by even the nForce2, which carries double that bandwidth.
