Link building Company will help you | Simple Website Templates. Every great website and web design needs a starting place or point. Our own newly redesigned website started from a basic template that was heavily modified to suit our needs and the same can be done for you. Using our simple sea website templates on our site you can buy website templates With the introduction of the Thunder K7 motherboard approximately six months ago, Tyan was the first manufacturer to support AMD in their quest for Dual processor prowess. The Thunder K7 was aimed directly at the server market with features that included dual 3com LAN controllers, integrated ATI Rage XL video, and an onboard Adaptec AIC-7899W Dual-channel Ultra 160 SCSI controller. These features helped lend the Thunder K7 platform to the server market and high-end workstation group. These features coupled with the fact that the Thunder K7 was the first AMD Dual platform, came at a premium. Tyan, realizing that the Dual AMD platform had a greater market than just for servers, introduced us to their next generation of Dual AMD platforms, the Tiger MP. Unlike the Thunder K7, the Tiger MP was designed for the average end-user and was priced within reach of most system builders and die-hard gamers. The Tiger MP had a much smaller footprint than the Thunder K7 allowing it to mount in most enclosures currently available on the market. The Tiger MP featured the same AMD 760MP chipset as the Thunder K7. Another additional benefit of the Tiger MP was that it did not require a special power supply as did its older brother, the Thunder K7; which helped to keep the cost of building down. A couple of other distinctions were that Tyan had not included the integrated LAN, Video and SCSI on the Tiger MP. Instead they chose to give the end user the standard IDE controller, AGP slot, USB and four 64 bit 33MHz and two 32 bit 33MHz slots.
You would think that having not one but two Dual AMD platforms on the market and being the only manufacturer to currently produce a Dual AMD platform Tyan would be satisfied. This is not the case. In fact, Tyan is currently gearing up for the release of their third Dual AMD platform the Tyan Tiger MPX.
