Anyone had any experience with Tyan or Asus dual amd mobo. I am building a graphics art machine. I know Tyan has had theirs out for a while and Asus has just released theirs. It has been my general experience that the higher end Asus mobos are a bit faster than Tyan, but since tyan has had theirs out longer I was thinking maybe they had the bugs worked out.
Anyone tried these mobos ?? Any comments ??

Thanks for the input

I've had a Tiger MP since October, & I love it. Dual 1200/133 TBirds, 512 MB registered DDR, Matrox G450.

I plan on sticking with Tyan, & I intend to stick with dual AMD's for a while. I want dual 2600+ Thoroughbreds.

IMHO- Tyan for sheer reliability as they have considerably more experience with building solid SMP boards.
Asus for tweakability, performance and potential overclockability.
