[QUOTE="jhelm007, post: 116919, member: 6916"] Not all of the sawtooths (sawteeth?) have dual proc. capable motherboards. Gigadesigns has a utility that tells you if yours is or not. Once you have determined if DP is even an option it gets a little stickier. A lot of apps don't benefit much from DP and DP upgrades are really expensive. Also something to keep in mind: The newest fastest G4 upgrades (i.e. 1.6+) have no L3 cache. L3 cache helps alot b/c sawtooths have a relatively slow memory bus. In otherwords, I have no idea what you should do, but I started typing before I realized this. Good Luck [/QUOTE]
