Will all Core 2 chips allow for quad processing?
I am planning on building a new system soon. I've seen mention of having 2
dual core chips from AMD and Intel effectively giving you quad processing. I haven't seen any info on if the first release chips from either company support this with a new motherboard chipset or if a totally different CPU is required. Thanks

Both companies already have CPUs out that support this - the dual-core Opterons, and dual-core "Paxville" Xeons, both support dual-socket configurations for four cores total. The Paxvilles even support Hyperthreading, giving you 8 virtual CPUs. (In my experience, though, it doesn't help much.) -- Mike Smith
