I have found very limited choice of motherboards for these processors.

I had been leaning toward supermicro but saw on one of the post that there is a problem with documentation.

My primary use for the system will be a home entertainment server.

I plan to connect thin clients to each room to access the server.

I would like to have the capability for hd expansion for music & videos (movies), I am not a gamer but I do a lot of cad work & some accounting (Home business).
My Wife is a big Hulu fan so we will be accessing the internet primarily for shows, research & news.

I have been trying to find information on Myth TV for it sounds like the way to go for what I wish to accomplish. (Am open to other options)

If someone with greater knowledge could give me some direction it would be greatly appreciated.

Here is the build so far...

- 2x AMD Opeteron 2358 Barcelona 2.4GHz Quad Core $169.99 each

- TYAN S2915A2NRF-E Thunder n6650W Dual 1207(F) NVIDIA nForce Professional 3600 + 3050 SSI / Extended ATX Dual AMD Opteron Server Motherboard - Retail $399
I wanted the 4x PCI 8x slots for 1 raid card, 2 expander cards and a 10Gb ethernet card sometime down the line when it becomes more of a standard.

- I plan on adding 2x2GB of ECC registered memory for each processor but have not yet looked at what memory is tested (approved) by the MB manufacturer as I'm not sure if this is the best motherboard for the job.

- areca ARC-1680IX-12 PCIe x8 512MB SAS RAID Card - Retail $799
The 2GB version is $50 more or I can go with this one and add a 4GB ram chip of my own for about $130. Again, I have not looked up which memory module is recommended for the PCB and have not listed a specific module. If I am convinced that 512MB should be fine, I would be inclined to get the 8 drive version for $699 instead which seems to be the same without the ability to upgrade the ram past 512MB.

- 37x Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 ST31500341AS 1.5TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive $119 each
12 on raid card, 24 on expander card and one for the system. Considering SSD for the system drive, thoughts are appreciated.

- 9x Cooler Master 4 in 3 Device module hard disk cage with 120mm fan $23.26 each
Yes, I know it's not a Sexy $3700 Chenbro 50 bay hotswappable server chassis but I couldn't justify the cost for convenience when the money could be better spent on extra storage as this build demonstrates.

- Chenbro 28 port SAS expander card - about $240
I'm married to this expander card solution at all but it adds 24 additional hard drives to the raid controller by way of SAS. I'm open to alternatives here and everywhere else in the build.

- Coolermaster Stacker 810 refurbished - $70
I own the dual psu version of this case and I'm very happy with it, this case is a great deal at $70 and I plan house 12 of the hard drives in 3 of the 4 in 3 modules listed above inside this case.

Which brings me to the question of power requirements for the build. I know that the hard drive spin up will be staggered on the boot and the requirements for the drives is...

Seagate 1.5G 7200.11 power requirements...
.7A 5v x36=25.9
.61A 12v x36=22.57

So now I just need to add the raid card motherboard and the 2xOpterons. Anyone know where I can find the data for the rail requirements for the Opterons? Beyond that I'll probably set up 2x PSU's inline or run a heavy duty redundant server PSU but I have not decided and again, input is appreciated.

Basically the server at max load will need to stream 1080p compressed to up to 8 TV's in the house at once while hosting as many as 4 VM clients. Frankly that's just not going to happen at the same time but if it does my guess is that this build can handle it just fine.

The home itself will have 2x 10Gb ethernet to each of 9 rooms and a 20 port Gb switch - $389.39 to handle the traffic.

I'm thinking each of the media clients will be macmini's running windows and XBMC for the media stuff until all the drivers are available to run the server for windows 7 if it turns out that windows 7 media player is superior to XBMC as far as a media client. I figure that running the mini's as VM clients to the server that I won't need to replace them at least until 10Gb is standard in cheap little computers but will just upgrade the server over time instead. Then again I really don't know what I should be expecting in terms of virtualization as I have never set up or worked on such a system.

I think that's pretty much it, if I missed something let me know and of course all questions or comments are greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.]]> http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=15&threadid=120728 2009-10-21T23:47:17 -05.00 imcobarn 2
I have been reading this forum for a while now as I now own an HP xw9300. It came with one single core opteron 250 (2.4 ghz) and it was running fine. I installed widows7 on it and it ran great.

Then I bought second 250 and installed it but did not have a heatsink/fan so when I started it (I just wanted to test it) and I got message that 2nd cpu did not have a fan so I turned it off and waited for the fan, which turned out to be the wrong one but anyway.

Then I bought matching pair of dual core opterons 270 (2.0 ghz) and installed one (since I did not have second heatsink) and I'm not sure about performance (that's another topic) but it ran just fine. So finally today I received matching heatsink/fan (HP high performance...) and installed second cpu. I have four gig. of ram so I split it between the two (2 gig. for cpu#0 and 2 gig. for cpu#1).

At first it was fine, bios recognized it and windows7 did as well but after restarting (new hardware installed in widows) after like few minutes, the rear fan starts to run faster and louder so I shut it down.

What is causing this? is it normal? I'm not even running any programs and it does that.

I was over at 2cpu.com asking if anyone had dealt with the
Arima SW310 motherboard, the product page says Duel Core ready, so I also bought a pair of 285s (seem to be going rather cheaply as second-hand units/ pairs.
As that it has PCIe, I thought that I would change out my Visionntek X1300 (PCI) for a true PCIe graphics card

I got replies about how I cannot run PCIe graphic cards with Serverworks chipsets, namely the BCM5780.
My search so far has only uncovered two Tyan boards the k8hm and k8hr that state that Does not support PCIe Graphics Card
I have found a later entry at the 2cpu forum where the user maxfactor says 09-17-2009, 11:39 PM

I know this board is old and is prolly not even supported anymore... but i picked a brand new one on ebay for little or nothing with a pair of 270 for little or nothing and 8 sticks of 1gb samsung...

Up and running onboard video then i tried an fx1400 which worked and lastly my hd 4850 which worked... i used the second pci-e slot not the first one...

I'm hoping that OS graphic drivers have improved and that PCIe graphic cards are more compatible with older slots than in the past.

I'm having a problem with getting RAID to work. In Fastbuild when I go into the "Define LD" menu I can see my two identical drives both in RAID mode JBOD. I select the one of the LD and enter the RAID configuration menu and there is no "[Space] Change" option "Save" or "Page Change"

The drives where working as RAID 1 on the previous motherboard. I have another single SATA in the workstation that has the OS and all the Apps in partitions. The RAID 1 is where I save my work.

I did a fresh install of XP, created the RAID driver floppy and did another fresh install so I could load the drivers at the F6 point (only one PC with a floppy drive!).

Another thing is that I wanted to add two more RAID 1 configured drives too (the reason for the new motherboard) but as soon as I connect one or both the system freezes during BOOT at the "Verifying DMI pool"

I'm probably doing something very obviously wrong but after spending most of the weekend on this I am close to pulling my grey hair out. Any help would be gratefully received.

I am willing to spend good money on the box. I am looking at 1U, 8-16 GB of RAM, Quad or Dual Quad processors, Dual Hot Swap 15k Drives in Raid 1, Windows Server 2003 (maybe 2008) 64 bit, etc. The machine will be capable of running several large game servers at a time.

The big question is... What processor(s)? Do you have or can anyone provide hard numbers comparing modern AMD vs Intel processors when used in a server role for gaming? I have looked all over the net and I am really having a difficult time finding good data for high performance gaming servers.

In advance, thanks for your help.

I am trying to put together a relative inexpensive virtualization server with the shanghai 8384 processors and tyan s4985 mobo. For memory, I am pretty sure I should not go for anything higher than DDR2 667 if I want to populate all the memory banks to max it out - so far so good.

Then I ran into this old post:

http://www.pantz.org/hardware/memory/memoryranks.html

Apparently, older opterons / socket F mobos have a memory rank(s) per CPU limit that can prevent people from using the cheaper dual/quad rank memory bars if they want to max out the mobo memory, I am just wondering if that is still the case for the shanghai 8xxx serials. If such a limit exists, could someone please give me a pointer to some technical documentations about this.

Thanks!

I just bought two Opterons 2378 for 265.49 USD and a mainboard Tyan n3600B S2927A2NRF-E. Now I'm wondering about memory, maybe you can help me?

I don't know what is the difference between ECC and ECC-Registered memory. I can only see that ECC-R is more expensive. Wikipedia article is only about ECC variant, and says nothing about ECC-R which makes me baffled. But in the shops I can see both variants ECC and ECC-R...

I'm not quite sure, but the motherboard manual http://www.tyan.com/manuals/S2927_UG_v1_1.pdf says that "Registered / ECC" is used. Which is unclear for me:

- does the motherboard work ONLY with ECC-R ?
- or does it work with both variants, ECC and ECC-R ?

- does anybody know if linux is reporting ECC errors through kernel messages?

I would be grateful for any help from you.]]> http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=15&threadid=110803 2009-03-21T09:47:45 -05.00 twtv 1
Great forum!

Here is my whole story:

I am working with Microsoft and need a test server on whcih I may establish my Virtual Labs. I will use Hyper-V mostly. I will install Windows 2008 R2 64 Bit as the Host OS, 4 Windows 2003 Servers with Exchange 2007 on one of them as Virtual Machines, one Windows-7 Virtual Client, One Vista Virtual Client on Hyper-V. Later, I'll deploy Sharepoint on the Host 2008 OS itself.

Please keep in mind that this is just a TEST Server and will never be in production hence it just should be fast enough to take the software processing requirement of itself. There will be no clients hopping the server resources and taking up its share of processng resource hence just think that way when you make suggestions.

My requirement:

1. A decent Xeon E5410 equivalant 64 Bit Server class Qaud processor with Virtualization capabilities.

2. Compatible Dual Socket Mother Board with support of upto 16 GB RAM. Preferebly Asus as it easily available.

In Xeon, the best budget-need ratio fit is Xeon E5410 with SV5000VSAR MotherBoard which supports Virtualization and a RAM of upto 16 GB.

Now, in AMD, fisrts of all, there are limmited tools on the website to help me find the right motherboard and chasis. I went thru http://www.amd.com/us-en/asset...46808B_AMDIntelCom.pdf and saw that almost all AMD processors have lesser L2. It is concerning as being an Electonics Engineer and knowing the heart of processors myself, i understand L2 and L3 are very important.

Any suggestions which 64 Bit processor+motherboard with Virtualization technology will be best for me?

ANy Indians/Pakistani in the forum? Would love to discuss it with you as you will understand my budget and cost-benefi better.

With Regars,

I will also be using the workstation to run teams of virtual machines (using vmware workstation) for testing so a system setup with good hardware virtualization support is essential for me. My Budget is $400.My current build is a core 2 e7200, 8GB RAM, 500GB SATA 2 hard disk, 250 GB sata 2 hard disk on a abit IP35P motherboard.

My situation is .. I have two 2 unused Optron 8347 and want to build my video editing workstation with them. I don't know what to look when shopping for my motherboard. It seem to me that all advertised 8300 series mother in the market are for 4 cpus servers and very very expensive.

I need to have some reliable confirmation regarding the motherboard for Optron 83xx series. I've read the official specification and understand that the 8300 series can be used in one to eight while 23xx can be used in one to two cpus configuation. However, I cannot find any reliable information regarding the compatibility between 83xx and 23 xx series.

Can the Quad-core Opteron 83xx series be installed in any dual socket F motherboard that advertise as 2000 series motherboard compatible?
Any recomendation for me?

The System Buses on both processors appears to be 1000MHz -- which of these two memory speeds are optimal for this bus speed? I'll probably use a SuperMicro motherboard based on the nVidia MCP55 Pro chipset.

Your input (however verbose) is appreciated. Thank you!]]> http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=15&threadid=109409 2009-02-23T16:24:25 -05.00 bailoutkid21 1 http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=15&threadid=108791 2009-02-14T12:44:12 -05.00 hockey97 2
I am currently with wowway and they told me they have a policy against using servers on their network.

Any ideas what I should do?

Is DSL any good?

I saw covad haivng a business dsl service to me for 68 bucks a month for dsl at 1.5 mb download and some 512kb upload.

I don't know if they will allow me to use a server if I buy a business graded package.

The reason I ask is that I see 8350s for sale but the model nos. are different.

eg. OS8350WAL4BGC
OS8350WAL4BGD
OS8350WAL4BGH

I want to get 4 8350s to fill out the Tyan S4980 motherboard and wanted to know if I could mix 8350s with different model nos. or is it better to stick to the same for all 4.


Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

I read somewhere awhile back, maybe 8 or 10 months ago, that it doesn't like to backup Quciken programs. Is this still true?

Let's say I build a computer, put Windows Home Server on it, but 10 years down the road the motherboard dies.
I can't get the same motherboard so I have to get a new one with new cpu, ram ect. What then?

The information that I accumulate in the back-ups I will want to keep until the year 2030.

I have recently installed fedora 10 on my new pc that uses an AMD 790GX motherboard.

Could you please tell me the correct way of using the on-board RAID 5 controller? Currently although I am running in RAID mode and have set up a RAID array, fedora sees each hard disk individually.

Thank you for any help.]]> http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=15&threadid=103834 2008-11-27T01:18:07 -05.00 dan_w 6 But so, what I'm looking for is a dual socket F mobo, barcelona compatible. So far I've found Tyan's S2927-E and S2932-E, but after reading a lot of reviews I'm scared. Well, the only review I found on the 2927 was not a review but a forum thread, and op ended up returning the board. Also found rumors about Tyan's having trouble with linux; and I'm planning my new box to be linux-only; haven't decided on a distro yet.
Seems like my only choices are from Tyan, Supermicro and ASUS, and I've had a lot of problems with ASUS mobos in the past.

I am a 3D graphic artist, and when rendering I could easily use 8 cores + 8 gigs of ram.

Context:
Next year I am planing to build a work station with at least 2 quad-core processors and lots of ram.
It will run gentoo Linux. Usually I will be rendering something in the background with, say 4 to six threads, with the other 2 for doing something else to distract myself while I wait. For some very hi-res/hi poly count renders I will need all cores and ram at once.]]> http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=15&threadid=99841 2008-09-08T12:04:51 -05.00 khonjo 3 http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=15&threadid=99812 2008-09-07T14:20:13 -05.00 O'Neil 5

USB ports
Height adjustability
TV Tuner if possible to watch TV on but not necessary since i have a TV already.

started using remote X and or thin client, with the noisy part in my home data center, (aka spare
bedroom).

What I found that met my requirements and desirable features is the Sun X2200 M2 server, 1U
rack mount. That kind of suprised me. Lots of other vendors came very close, and many exceeded
specific catagories, (like more disk slots). But, only Sun had the minimum. So far it's working out
fine, though I have yet to give it the "use it alot for months" test.

This is what I got from a package deal;
- dual, quad core Opterons, 2347 HEs, (55 watts per socket)
- 8GBs of memory, (2 x 2GB per CPU socket), 12 memory sockets empty
- 4 x 10/100/1000 Ethernet
- network management port, shared with "eth1" above, has built in remote KVM via web Java,
also has remote mounting of CD-ROM images
- serial management port
- 2 x 8 lane PCI-E full height, (or optionally 1 x 16 lane PCI-E full height, customer replacable)
- 2 x 3.5" SATA disk slots with disk mounting bracket, no disks
- guarenteed to run Solaris x86 & Linux
- 1 U rack mount
- 6 USB
- video
- DVD / CD-ROM bay, un-populated

Here is my shopping list of features needed or desired;

- dual socket that supported quad core AMD CPUs, (but initially could be dual cores)
- at least 4 DIMM slots per CPU socket, and only half used for initial minimum 4GBs
- 2 PCI card slots
- 2 x Gigabit Ethernet
- 1 x 10/100 Ethernet, (or another Gigabit Ethernet)
- network management port, with remote power on / off
- at least 2 hot swap SATA disk slots, 3.5" form factor, prefer SAS slots with HW RAID-1
- no bundled disks, (I tend to use enterprise quality disks, not comsumer grade)
- no bundled OS or applications, (which usually raises the cost)
- run Solaris x86 & Linux
- Not too much of a power hog
- rack mount 1U
- not too expensive
- no DVD / CD-ROM, (or optional)

Downside of the Sun X2200 M2, (in highest first order);
- Linux and Solaris x86 do not support RAID-1 on the built in SATA controller from N-Vidia. That
said, it appears someone wrote Linux tools that do work, but not currently part of the standard
Linux distrobutions. Sun does support a LSI PCI-E SAS card in it for RAID-1 under Solaris x86.
- Fans sound like a vacum cleanner on steriods until the speed controls kick in via BIOS. Then
quite reasonable sound levels, (meaning I could watch T.V. while it was loading the OS).
- The default IP for the network management port was not what it should have been. Nor was it
DHCP. Eventually went in to serial management port and put in the final static IP.
- Internal SAS RAID-1 disk option is single port, not dual port per disk.
- No redundant power supply option. Not that my home has that cability, but it would be nice in
case one power supply died. Perhaps I will buy a spare.

For those interested, my remote X is a "fit-PC" paper back book sized PC. It's quiet, low power (5
watts), and is currently running Gentoo. Runs XDCMP pretty fast.
My thin client is a SunRay 1, (Sun Ray Server Software is available from Sun for download).]]> http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=15&threadid=98600 2008-08-12T01:09:01 -05.00 forty-one 1 http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=15&threadid=98504 2008-08-09T01:56:17 -05.00 AlabamaCajun 15
I did make one mistake, I ordered Unbuffered ECC DIMMs since I thought all Optis ran on them. From what I've seen, that is not the case. I stretched my plastic a little more and ordered 2 more pairs of Reg'd ECC. I don't have the hardware yet but will a Barc work with this RAM as long as I only have 2 dimms per CPU?

I'll post more process as I proceed.

Build Specs;
2x8347BCEs
Tyan S4980G2NR 4 socket mobo with digital regulation.
2 sets of 2x1G Kingston DDR-667.
PC-PNC Silencer 610 with adaptor (no plan for more than 2 drives and one optical. Not other heavy power draining periphs).
onboard video will do or a low end ATI card.

I've read that cooling solutions designed for Socket 939 will work for Socket F. But no one specified the mounting pitch this rule applies to (Socket F specs allow for 3.5" and 4.1" mounting pitch).

I imagine the Socket 939 bolt-thru kit will work with 3.5" mounting pitch from eyeballing pictures of it and the two different types of Socket F.

Which means I have to choose between Ultima-90 with a 3.5" mounting pitch motherboard or 4.1" mounting pitch motherboard with tiny heasink like Cooljag FAT-B.

If anyone has a definite answer on this, I'd appreciate it.

Please recommend a quiet cooling solution that performs well on dual Socket-F motherboard with 4.1" mounting pitch. TYAN S2937G2NR to be specific, which places the two sockets pretty close together and has the memory banks close by also.]]> http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=15&threadid=96494 2008-06-19T16:32:43 -05.00 statiknights 10
