Athlon MP (Athlon Multiprocessor) was a family of 32-bit x86 server multiprocessors designed by AMD specifically for the server and workstations market. Athlon MP was AMD's first multiprocessing-capable platform.
Overview
AMD announced their first multiprocessing-capable platform at Computex Taipei on June 5th, 2001. The platform includes the Athlon MP processors as well as the AMD-760MP northbridge chipset. AMD-760MP supports one- and two-way setups and Double Data Rate (DDR) memory operating at 133 MHz. At the time, AMD's vice president for their servers group stated Athlon MP processor delivers up to 38% higher performance over their competition (presumably referring to Xeon).
