The Tyan Thunder S4985 is a true monster of a workstation motherboard engineered for demanding professional workloads. Built around the NVIDIA nForce Pro 2200 chipset and designed to accommodate AMD Opteron 8000 Series processors, this platform delivers exceptional multi‑core performance, robust I/O, and scalable expansion for engineering, digital content creation, data analytics, and enterprise-scale serving tasks. Whether you are configuring a high‑end workstation for 3D rendering, simulation, or compute-intensive applications, the S4985 is crafted to provide reliability, upgrade paths, and the headroom needed to handle complex projects with ease.

  • High‑performance CPU compatibility: Supports AMD Opteron 8000 Series processors, delivering the multi‑threaded power and energy efficiency required for heavy workloads and parallel processing. The Socket F LGA‑1207 design enables a wide range of compatible Opteron CPUs to fit premium workstation configurations.
  • Extensive PCIe expansion for GPUs and accelerators: The Thunder S4985 ships with up to four PCI Express x16 slots (plus a PCI slot), enabling multiple graphics cards, high‑bandwidth accelerators, or other expansion cards to accelerate rendering, scientific computing, and virtualization workloads. This level of I/O density helps you tailor the system for maximum throughput and performance headroom.
  • Advanced storage with RAID options: Integrated SATA2 with RAID support provides flexible, fault‑tolerant storage options for fast data access, large datasets, and reliable backup configurations. This makes the S4985 ideal for workstation arrays, media libraries, and data‑driven applications where sustained I/O performance matters.
  • Diverse networking for fast data transfer: Built for enterprise networking with dual Gigabit Ethernet ports and an additional 10/100 Ethernet interface, ensuring high‑speed, redundant connectivity for workstations, servers, or shared storage environments. This combination supports failover strategies, virtualization, and streaming workflows without bottlenecks.
  • Enterprise‑grade I/O and reliability: The NVIDIA nForce Pro 2200 chipset is selected to deliver robust I/O performance, solid PCIe integration, and proven reliability for continuous operation in demanding professional environments. The Thunder S4985 is designed to maintain stable performance under heavy workloads and long render or compute sessions, making it a dependable cornerstone for professional studios and technical labs.

How to install Tyan Thunder (S4985) Workstation Motherboard

  • Prepare your chassis and power supply: Ensure you have a compatible workstation chassis and the correct power delivery to support the Opteron CPU, PCIe cards, and storage devices. Ground yourself to prevent static discharge before handling components.
  • Install the CPU into Socket F LGA-1207: Open the CPU socket, align the Opteron processor correctly, then lock the socket lever. Apply a quality thermal interface material and install the heatsink/fan assembly securely to ensure optimal cooling during intensive workloads.
  • Install memory and other front‑end components: If supported by the motherboard design, install memory modules in the appropriate slots and verify memory compatibility with the Opteron platform. Attach any essential front‑panel connectors as required by your chassis.
  • Mount the motherboard in the chassis: Align the I/O shield and mounting points, then secure the board with screws. Double‑check all standoffs to prevent shorts and ensure proper clearance for large GPUs or PCIe add‑ins.
  • Connect expansion cards and storage: Install PCIe x16 cards (graphics accelerators, networking, or compute devices) as needed. Connect SATA drives to the onboard SATA controllers and configure RAID settings in the BIOS/RAID controller utility if you require redundancy or performance optimizations.
  • Power up, configure BIOS, and install OS: Power on the system and enter the BIOS to set boot order, memory timing, and PCIe slot preferences. Save settings, boot from your installation media, and complete the operating system installation and driver setup to ensure all components are recognized and performing optimally.

Perfect for a queen bed

I LOVE this rug. I’m so glad I bought this instead of a cheap dupe. Reasonably priced, arrived quickly, doesn’t smell. It’s super soft and fluffy and really dense, so far I haven’t noticed any shedding. The size is perfect for draping across a queen bed. The color is beautiful and feels very natural. I might buy a second one for my bus conversion! Thank you so much!

Great quality, color is ok.
Color: Cream Brown, Size: 2 x 6 ft Sheepskin
The quality, texture, feel and smell of the rug is very good. The hairs adhere to the back lining well and don't shed even with my cat trying to bite it out. The only downside unfortunately is aesthetic— the cream brown I ordered, in natural light/sun shining on it, looks more yellowish - gold.
