The Test

We first ran a quick set of benchmarks to measure the performance of the Tiger MP vs. the Thunder K7.  The performance of the two boards was identical, so we will point you back at our original AMD 760MP Review for performance stats comparing the Athlon MP in single and dual processor modes to the competition. 

For this review, we'll limit the benchmarking study to a comparison of 2P systems using Athlon MP processors and the new Duron with the Morgan core
