Are there going to be Opteron 100 series nForce4 motherboards coming out as well?

the tiger boards are probably opteron (for sure that dual socket thunder is opteron) but the pic isnt detailed enough to see the corner and see if it has the extra pin or not

Yeah those are 1 series server boards, just look at the power connectors.

Thanks. I didn't notice that.

what's the point of a 1 series server board? Why not just use much cheaper Athlon64's?

Stability is a must for servers so the ECC memory support is important. Besides that there's not much other than integrated dual gigabit that I can think of for why someone might choose the 1 series board.

Think about all the fx-51 and 53 940 pin owners out there who may want to upgrade with out selling their cpu. Tons of companies are offering 939 nforce 4 solutions so tyan is picking up this little bit of the market.
