  Overall Evaluation: If your ready to take your computing to the next level, TYAN Thunder K8S will take you there. AMD hyper-transport AGP tunnel provide maximum throughput for unsurpassed graphics performance. Wheather your using for a workstation or server the S2885ANRF with its advanced features and 32-bit and 64-bit computing capability on the same system at the same time far exceeds the current windows intel platform performance, no front side bus bottlenecks or memory limitations here with up to 16GB of memory capacity the computing power seems endless. My TYAN Thunder K8S system rules! If I catch you online in a game room your toast! If I'm doing graphic video editing my renduring is a fraction of the time it used to take on my old dog P4 Intel system. SETI @home test scored through the roof. Need I say more? TYAN really scored a home run with S2885ANRF. AMD Opteron is awesome!
