8-way SMP; 1.3 GHz POWER4 HPC (2x4-way MCM)

8-way SMP; 1.1 GHz POWER4 (1x8-way MCM)

POWER4 chip is the first ever dual processor SMP on a single piece of silicon.
Server on a chip -- IBM's POWER4 microprocessor, widely acknowledged to be at
least one  generation ahead of competing chips, is the first "server on a chip."
It contains two one-gigahertz-plus processors, a high-bandwidth system switch,
a large memory cache and I/O. The unique design enables the server to conserve
energy and dramatically outperform servers that have more than twice as many
processors.
