Tyan, a company well renowned for its high-quality and high-performance server and workstation motherboards, has announced the introduction of a new G34 dual-socket motherboard, which is compatible with AMD's latest 6200-series Opteron Bulldozer processors.
Dubbed the S8236-IL, the motherboard is based on the AMD SR5690 chipset and supports a maximum of two 16-core Opteron 6200 series processors.
These are linked together via four HyperTransport links capable of transferring up to 6.4 GT/s.
Tyan's latest motherboard creation also pairs each of the two CPUs installed with no less than eight DIMM slots, enabling users to install as much as 256GB of DDR3 memory inside the system.
In addition, the board also features three PCI Express x16 Gen 2 slots, as well as three Gigabit Ethernet ports thanks to Intel's 82574L and 82576EB NICs.
Storage is handled by both the integrated AMD SP5100 south bridge and a hardware LSI SAS2008 controller, the combo providing a total of 12 6Gbit SAS ports and two SATA 3Gbps ports.
The motherboard can be monitored thanks to an AST2050 BMC chip that provides IMPI 2.0 support.
Together with the mainboard, Tyan also launched the GT24-B8236-IL barebone which comes in the 1U form factor and can include up to dual redundant 450W power supplies as well as this new motherboard.
The system supports four hot-swappable 3.5-inch hard disks, and is cooled by six 40mm fans that are automatically controlled by thermal sensors to save power and reduce noise.
“In conjunction with advanced technology from AMD, Tyan's platform delivers all the benefits of AMD Opteron 6200 and 4200 Series processors,” said Albert Mu, vice president of MiTAC International Corporation’s Tyan Business Unit.
“Tyan offers a full array of AMD Opteron processor based platforms that meet customers’ critical requirements and achieve their business goals from varied industries in a cost-effective and power-efficient way.”
Both the barebone and the motherboard are available right now through Tyan distributors worldwide at an yet undisclosed price point.
