    Can the x64 version of windows support 4 processors?
    (I'm assuming the dual core AMDs are treated as 2 physical processors.)

    Thanks in advance.

    No, dual core processors are treated as a single processor for licensing
    purposes.

    So XP x64 supports up to 2 dual core processors (4 cores)

    Processors are counted per socket, not per core, so your dual 275's are
    counted as 2 processors for licensing purposes. This means they ARE supported
    by XP.

    Windows XP Pro x64 edition supports up to 8 concurrent threads (2 processors,
    with 2 cores each, and 2 threads per core).
