How are processes, and multiple threads of a single process, balanced
accross multiple processors?

part of the motivation is to determine what will run faster...
Dual Athlon 2400 with PC2100 memory - 760MPX Chips
        OR
Single Athlon 2400 with PC2700/3200 - KT400 Chips

There dont seem to be any boards for dual Athlon and the faster RAM.

some of the boards I am looking at are below. Any specific comments are
welcome.

<MPX only supports PC2100>
Motherboards considered
     ASUS A7M266-D
     Tyan Thunder K7X (S2468)
     MSI K7D Master (MS-6501-030)
