Man those are OLD P1 Chip-sets !

Now how about something a bit more modern, like 815, 845 and 865 chip-sets.

Curiously, I can't find any mention of limits for any relatively recent chipsets. Since the old FX chipset cache 4096 megs I suspect they all can since that's also the limit of addressable memory under a 32bit architecture.

Those figures aren't entirely irrelevant since there's a lot of people running SETI on some real junkpiles of machines.
