That’s a good lookin board.

I wonder how hard it would be to tap into that socket with a interposer and put two pentiums and a APIC there.. 🤔 the chipset supports it… 😁

Isn't the APIC integrated in the HX chipset?

I suggest you aim for at least 4 layers then 🤣

Please use the "quote" option if asking questions to what I write - it will really up the chances of me noticing 😀

There is a apic in the provessor, but on a dual system there is a external apic with hx boards at least…
