ripken204 Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 the new amd AM2 socket has a bunch of new features. one of them which i have seen some people talk about before. with the nforce5, you can assign both ethernet ports the same ip address. this can be used as redundancy if 1 port fails. but say that if you had 2 internet connections for some reason. you could hook both of them up and they will be combined.

ripken204 Posted June 28, 2006 Author Posted June 28, 2006 already exists? if these are the ethernet ports that come with mobos then i dont think so.
