Tyan Tempest i5000XL Preview
“With Computex Taipei 2006 wrapping up today, Tyan Computer
Corporation was again a heavy-hitter at this year’s expo. If you

x8 slots, Tyan TARO support, triple networking ports, and support
for up to 16GB of registered DDR2-400 memory. The motherboard is
also designed for 1U environments with optimal airflow and thermal
advantages…”
