Dual LGA 771 server board
The Tyan S5397WAG2NRF is an Extended ATX motherboard built for dual-socket Xeon systems. It targets administrators who need to run legacy enterprise workloads on Intel 5400 chipset hardware with maximum memory capacity.
Verify power and memory before install
Confirm your chassis accepts the 12.0 by 13.0 inch Extended ATX footprint and that the power supply delivers the required EPS connectors for dual processors. You must populate the 16 DDR2 240-pin slots with registered ECC DDR2 800 modules to reach the 128 GB limit.
Dual Gigabit LAN and Super I/O
Two Intel 82563EB controllers provide independent 10/100/1000 Mbps network links for management and data separation. The Winbond 83627HF Super I/O chip handles legacy console redirection and hardware monitoring without extra cards.

Questions about this item
Does the motherboard ship with CPU coolers, memory modules or any cables, or must they be purchased separately?
The board is supplied as a bare motherboard only. You will need to buy two LGA 771 Xeon processors, up to 16 DDR2-800 ECC modules to reach 128 GB, and your own drive and power cables.
How do I decide between populating a few slots versus all 16 DDR2 slots when the maximum is 128 GB?
Each of the 16 slots accepts a 240-pin DDR2-800 ECC DIMM. Install fewer high-capacity modules for simpler upgrades, or fill all slots with smaller modules to hit the 128 GB limit.
What real-world throughput can I expect from the dual Intel 82563EB Gigabit LAN ports once the server is running?
Each port negotiates at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps. In a typical server workload you will see near 1000 Mbps per port, giving two independent gigabit links for separate networks or failover.
