A symmetric multiprocessor system constructed from industry standard commodity components together with an advanced dual-ported memory controller. The multiprocessor system comprises a processor bus; up to four Intel Pentium TM Pro processors connected to the processor bus; an I/O bus; a system memory; and a dual-ported memory controller connected to the system memory, the dual ported memory controller having a first port connected to the processor bus to manage processor to system memory transactions and a second port connected to the I/O bus to manage I/O transactions. Furthermore, two such systems can be connected together through a common I/O bus, thereby creating an eight-processor Pentium TM Pro processor SMP system.
