Do you care if it's a MP or MPX chipset based board? I have a Tyan Tiger MP with no CPUs that I would be willing to let go. Let me know if you are interested...

i am far from intel whore. the only thing intle in my house is a celeron 400 holding me over till i get my server fixed. so at this point anything is better then what i have. and if bull frog is in that same giving mood he can get me a dual, quad, 8 way opteron any of the three will do :D . so yeah back to bullfrog and the tiger MP how much do you want for it?

If you are going to try and mod a couple of XP1800s then the Tyan Tiger MP is probably not something you want. The board will ONLY work with Reg ECC memory and does NOT like modded chips. It's only rated to run MP1900s and even that is pushing it. The reason is Tyan 'cut' corners on the voltage regs and can get the main ATX header so hot it melts the plugs. Tyring to run modded chips does strange things with the MP chipset board.

If you still want to do it...cool but I want to warn you that you are walking the edge with this board. Given what you want to do.

i have no plans on overclocking the board, its going to be used as a web/game server. i already have 1 gig of reg ecc and 2 1800 tbred-b chips. so now im just down to needing a board.
