Forget about socket F? It could double the number of sockets in easy glueless systems. It will allow a hypercube arrangement straight up. Thats 16 sockets with a 4 hop maximum and a 2 hop average.

Sixteen sockets?

ROFL. On SPEC JBB2000 and JBB2005 an 8 CPU
Opteron system with 8 sockets and 2.8 GHz single core
devices performs worse than an 8 CPU Opteron system
with 4 sockets and 2.4 GHz dual core devices. Where's
the value of 8 socket glueless Opteron systems let along
sixteen sockets glueless? You are off in lala land.

BTW, you have also just clearly indicated that you do not
understand how the Opteron's cache coherency scheme
works. wink
