Hi all; DDR SMP Athlon board selling now:

Tyan Thunder K7 Selling Now
Rat, Xbitlabs, May 28, 2001
On-line hardware store, ENPC.com
[ store.yahoo.com ], is offering Tyan Thunder K7 mainboard based on AMD-760MP chipset. This is a dual-Socket A mainboard supporting DDR SDRAM. If you would like to see the complete specs of this product, here you are:

* AMD 760MP chipset (IDG4-2 NorthBridge + Viper SouthBridge);
* Dual SocketA (EV6 200MHz/266MHz);
* 4 184-pin DDR DIMM slots supporting max 4GB DDR SDRAM;
* Supports ECC (72-bit) memory modules;
* 5 64/ 32-bit 33MHz PCI;
* 1 AGP Pro;
* ATI Rage XL graphics accelerator (4MB frame buffer);
* SCSI On-Board Adaptec AIC-7899W controller (Dual-channel Ultra160 SCSI support, supports up to 15 LVD SCSI devices per channel, 2 68-pin connectors);
* Network On-Board Two 3Com 2C920 LAN controllers;
* 2 IDE ATA/100 channels supporting up to 4 devices;
* Form Factor Extended ATX (305mm x 330mm);
* 2 USB ports, 1 parallel and 1serial ports;
* 2MB Phoenix BIOS.

You should bear in mind that this mainboard, just like Xeon mainboards, require special power supply units with additional 12V 8-pin connector.

And now comes the most interesting thing: the price. Although MSRP makes $749, ENPC.com offers this mainboard for on-line ordering for only $575. The shipments of Tyan Thunder K7 as well as of AMD Athlon with SmartMP technology are expected to start on June 4.
