    Can anybody tell me why...

    anybody even bothers to make a dual channel DDR board for an Athlon? The FSB of the AXP can't make use of anything more than 1 channel of PC2700 at stock speeds(with the new 166 FSB of course), even hardcore overclockers can still be covered with a single channel of PC3200. To semi quote one of my favorite movies, giving the Athlon dual channel DDR is like "boobs on a bull".

    If you are referring to nForce, I would say they did it with integrated video in mind.
