Asus or Tyan Motherboard?
I am building a home server. Here are the specs I need.This will be used for windows 2003 server enterprise OS.
Requirements:
Form Factor: ATX
CPUs Dual Xeon 2GHz Up
Chipset Intel Only
System Memory 4 Gigs Up
Slots 1 AGP or 1 PCI-E, 2 PCI slots minimum
OnBoard I/O 1 PS/2 Keyboard & Mouse, 1 Floppy, 2 IDE Connectors,
Front Ports Audio & USB For Front Panel, 2 USB External,
2 Integrated LAN Ports, 2 SATA Connectors
PC Health Monitoring: CPU & Motherboard Temp Monitoring & Connectors.
So far I have concluded that these 2 are my best options for what I want.
Tyan Tiger i7505 (S2668ANR)
or
ASUS PC-DL Deluxe
Any recommendations on which one I should get to meet my needs? Or does anyone know of another model that tyan or asus makes that will be better?
Choosing a AMD motherboard is not an option for me in any way period.
Thanks to all for helping me
