i tried that....it doesn't have the option to check for motherboards that can support 2 processors.....i'm looking for a 2x2 setup (2 Hyperthreading processors).....

I believe that pentium has moved their duel line to only the server processors now that they offer HT on a single die -not to mention the only os's that can do quad processors(HT X 2 would be the same as quad)is server enterprise and up from ms(as in NT server enterprise) or the server versions of linux(not all versions) ,unix or novell.

Hyperthreading is prolly gonna turn out to be just that, hype. :)

But seriously, Evil, did you hit the lottery wanting one of these dual processor mobos?

video rendering......

HA,joke is on you -hyperthreading causes massive lockups with video editing software.most people have to turn it off in the bios -not to mention there is no software for quad processors. :)
