Here is another PC post of people looking for Triton PC`s
Triton chips are designed for home and office use and have severe
limitations:
- they only support memory sizes up to 128 MB, not 256 MB,
- only the first 64MB can be cached, and
- they do not support symmetric multi-processing (SMP) hardware, only
single processor configurations.
Heavy duty applications like CAD and color graphics benefit from all this.
Hence we stayed with the Neptune chip set. We use the improved Neptune 2
chipset which gives a wider memory bandwidth allowing for faster memory
access than the Neptune 1 which was used on some of the earlier 90 MHz
Pentium TD's.
