The AMD-760MPX chipset, released in May 2001, is a dual-processor chipset designed for Socket A. It supports AMD Athlon MP processors and is the platform for multi-processor workstations and servers. The chipset consists of the AMD-762 system controller and the AMD-766 peripheral bus controller. Most initial boards shipped without USB headers due to a fault with the integrated USB controller; manufacturers included PCI USB cards to cover this shortcoming. A later refresh of the chipset remedied the USB problem.
