AMD designed Socket F to be used for more then just CPUs, though in reality this didn't happen much
There was a few though
Here is one by 3 Leaf Systems

eSilicon EC475640A-1R-E 600dpi

Cray also made some socket F chips. I recall a few past eBay listings.

They typically are custom chips rather then CPUs.
They were mainly made to take advantage of HyperTransport, where the CPU socket is really just one interface to the HyperTransport bus, so things that needed fast access to the rest of the system (its CPUs and memory etc) things like extra multiprocessing support, or networking, or memory controllers etc
