Tyan drops Adaptec, jumps on the LSI Logic wagon
Posted by: dadmin on: 02/01/2000 05:41 PM [ Print | 6 comment(s) ]
Tyan is releasing in early February an updated version of their popular Dual CPU Thunderbolt S1837UANG motherboard. The new version, now called S1837UANG-L. The additional 'L' stands for the LSI Logic's Symbios dual channel Ultra2 LVD onboard SCSI. Gone is the Adaptec AIC-7896 Ultra2 LVD.
This board is truly designed for us SMP power users. Aside from the onboard SCSI, it can handle single/dual PII/PIII processors, onboard 10/100 ethernet, Creative Labs sound, 2X AGP and 6 PCI slots (with all that onboard stuff, what exactly do we stuff into these open slots??).
On a sidenote, still related to this powerful motherboard, here's a quote from

We’ve had the pleasure to drive the original S1837UANG motherboard and we're pleased to say it’s continued running like the workhorse it was designed to be. After upgrading to the latest BIOS, we found Coppermine support to work flawlessly with the latest BIOS update (regardless of what it says) and have been able to overclock an 800MHz Coppermine to a system bus speed of 133MHz using Crucial 133MHz SDRAM with no ill effects.

The Register has posted a review of IBM's Thinkpad T42p. The T42p sports ATI's Mobility Fire GL T2 workstation graphics chip. What sets a workstation chip apart from standard graphics chips is its certification for use with certain high-end graphical design packages. So if you want a notebook to run a CAD package, or a 3D rendering application, you'll want one that has a graphics chip approved by the software vendor. That way, when you run a preview of that complicated scene that you've been working on for days, you know it will work.This really does look like a mobile workstation. You might want to take a look. |

The guys over at SFFTech have posted a review of Iwill's ZMAXdp SFF. If I'm not mistaken, Hooz is running one of these units in the secret 2CPU.com underground test bunker. After previewing two "engineering samples" and now reviewing the final shipping product, we can confidently say that the ZMAXdp continues to amaze us. As you |
