FREMONT, CA, October 22nd, 2004 - Compact servers present a unique design challenge. They must be thermally-optimized, manageable both by hardware and software, and provide a level of flexibility to adapt the platform to multiple situations and environments. The total solution to these requirements is Tyan's Tomcat i845GV (S3098): a FlexATX platform which offers all of this, and more.

Sporting the tried-and-true Intel(r) 845GV chipset, the Tomcat i845GV supports a full range of Intel single processor mPGA-478 models such as the Mobile Pentium(r) 4, Celeron(tm) D, and the "Northwood" and "Prescott" Pentium 4 processors. Other exceptional features include dual Intel-based 10/100 or Gigabit Ethernet network interface support, PCI 2.3 compliant slots, integrated video from the 256-blt Intel Extreme Graphics core with 2D and 3D support, and up to 2GB of DDR400 Unbuffered memory, everything encompassed into a 9" x 7.5" (229mm x 191mm) board size. With all of these features, the Tomcat i845GV delivers a potent server package for any compact environment space.

"Numerous applications such as those in security, embedded, and industrial situations, need small form factor platforms which can not only meet thermal requirements, but also offer a great deal of features without sacrificing space," said Don Clegg, VP of Marketing and Strategic Programs at Tyan. "It is with great excitement that Tyan announces the Tomcat i845GV (S3098) for thermally-restricted, space-constrained applications and environments."

The Tomcat i845GV (S3098) is currently available in mass quantities worldwide.
