Quad FX

Recommended Posts

Just a quick question as I don't have much time to research this before I order, but does anyone know if, with the new FX series of AMD processors if you can just use one processor on the dual socket MB? I would imagine you could but I haven't really been anble to find it anywhere. The reason I ask is that I want to build a system on it but really can only afford one processor after buying an almost $400 mobo and another $400 in memory. Thanks for any responses. I also feel you can since AMD allows you to buy one processor at a time as opposed to the original stance of buying them in pairs. Thanks again.

Nevermind, I found my answer (for those who care, yes you can run one processor at a time). Now though I am not so sure I want to double my electric bill. I even read one article that stated the guy was tripping the breaker for his room when he ran a QuadFX full system. Geez. Looks like I am jumping on the Intel Quad-core band wagon (the new Q6600 will save me around $100 over the QX6700).
