Pipe Dream

[ Intro ] [ tyan i840 ]

Up: Previous Motherboard Choices ]

      Here are boards that looked really good... until I saw the price. I love performance, expandability and reliability... but I have no more children to sell to buy any of these.

What I can't have

Name: Thunder i840
Manufacturer: Tyan
Why I like it:
  • AGP 4X
  • 4 USB, 2 on board, 2 by cable
  • Dual Ultra 160 SCSI
  • 64-bit PCI
  • 2 Network ports
Concerns:
  • Uses RDRAM (very expensive)
  • On board graphics
  • Expensive ~$675
