Over the years at Phoronix there have been reviews on many
Tyan motherboards for desktops, servers, and workstations. The build
quality of these motherboards have always been very good; after all,
Tyan has been around for two decades and their workstation/server
products must be very dependable if they wish to maintain their premiere
position within the industry. The Linux compatibility with the
motherboards has also been generally quite good due to its dominant use
on their operating systems. As our first Tyan review for 2010 we are
looking at the S2915 n6650W and S2927 n3600B motherboards. Both
motherboards are designed for AMD's Opteron 2000 series processors and
have a similar feature set, but there are a few key differences between
these two high-end workstation motherboards.
