Hi Randall, I have a brief browsing on SuperMicro website. I could not find their boards supporting AMD chips
The boards are for server work. Some of them even support 32G ECC DDR-200 DIMMs. Could you recommend which will be an economic model for Terminal Server serving about 25-35 clients. Thanks in advance. Stephen Liu At 03:50 PM 8/8/2002 -0700, you wrote: >The most important thing is not cpu power, but memmory bandwidth to >the cpus.
