If these were my forums I'd ban you for acting like a dumbass.

AMD's chips wouldn't have worked as easily in that setup. It's the curse of an on-die memory controller. They would have needed a new socket, though maybe they could have used two single channel memory busses. The G34 socket works for that sort of thing though. A 16 core G34 chip has 2 NUMA nodes. It doesn't have quad channel ram, it has two dual channel setups built into a single chip. Since Intel was still using a northbridge + FSB setup they could just add a second CPU to the FSB, just like they did for dual CPU systems.
With all this talk about Opteron 1xx chips I feel like the odd man out. I built an Opteron machine back in 2005, but I bought a pair of 246s. A few years later (2009 I think) I upgraded to a couple 285s I picked up on eBay. I ran that rig until early 2012, then built a socket 2011 rig. I've still got plenty of Opterons around though. I have a couple of quad socket F machines in my basement, plus a pair if dual socket 940 boxes I'm not really doing anything with at the moment- my old 2x285 machine plus a 2x275 box a friend gave me when he retired it.
Don't worry about that rodent, I know a lot of sites have rules against necro'ing but I never really saw the big deal. At least your post was still relevant to the topic.
I was nice to you and now you are attacking me? LMAO. Good thing I came up with a handle that perfectly demonstrates that I don't get offended easily.Maybe you should let the mods do they're job and stop worrying about what other people say or do. I think your handle here fits you well.
There's no emoticon needed to convey what I just said.
