Tyan, like Supermicro, recently announced products supporting the new Intel Xeon E5-2600 V2 and E5-1600 V2 Ivy Bridge-EP and Ivy Bridge-E processors. Tyan it utilizing a BIOS upgrade to allow its existing LGA2011 platforms to support the new processors. This is a common approach for those companies that already have an existing portfolio of products. Tyan also is launching two new products, the FT77B-B7059 and GA80-B7061 which targeting GPGPU and VDI applications. The Tyan FT77B-B7059 and GA80-B7061 support multiple GPU/ coprocessor modules (such as the Xeon Phi.) Certainly expected announcements, but it also provides existing customers with an upgrade path.

For those interested here is Tyan’s lineup for dual socket LGA2011 platforms:

Tyan motherboards for the Intel Xeon Processor E5-2600 v2 (Ivy-Bridge-EP): S7050, S7050-DLE, S7052, S7053, S7055, S7056, S7065, S7066

Tyan barebones for the Intel Xeon Processor E5-2600 v2 (Ivy-Bridge-EP): YR190-B7058-X2, FT48-B7055, GN70-B7056, GT24-B7066, TN70-B7066, GA80-B7061, TA77-B7061, FT77A-B7059, FT77A-B7059-LE, FT77B-B7059

Here is a copy of the official press release:

Taipei, Taiwan – September 10th , 2013 –TYAN, an industry-leading server platform design manufacturer and subsidiary of MiTAC International Corp, announced its full array of platforms supporting the latest Intel Xeon E5-2600 v2 processors product family. With 20 products and 70 SKUs in total, TYAN’s comprehensive product line can be updated to use the new

Ivy-Bridge CPUs requiring only a BIOS update.

“TYAN works with Intel closely to adopt the latest technology and provide the cutting edge products to the customers in all sizes and across industries,” said Albert Mu, Vice President of MiTAC International Corporation’s TYAN Business Unit. “TYAN’s comprehensive product portfolio supporting Intel Xeon Processor E5-2600 v2 product family delivers innovative and efficient solutions that help customers to solve the mission-critical workloads and deliver extraordinary performance from entry-level to high-performance computing.”

“The Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v2 product family delivers up to 45 percent more performance and 40 percent more energy efficiency over servers shipped last year due to 50 percent more cores and cache along with efficiencies associated with our 22nm tri-gate process technology,” said Shannon Poulin, vice president of Intel’s Datacenter and Connected Systems Group and general manager of the Datacenter Marketing Group. “Customers can expect increased virtualization performance, VM density, and platform and data protection technologies to meet growing demands. With the new Intel® Xeon processors, Tyan’s broad range of platforms address the diverse and ever increasing workload requirements that customers face.”

Supporting Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v2 product family that offers up to 8 cores and16 threads, TYAN presents total 20 products and 70 SKUs that meet different requirements from customers of all sizes and from across industries. Targeting HPC and GPGPU applications, TYAN presents its S7050, S7053, S7055, S7056, and S7065 motherboards product lines and its FT48-B7055, GA80-B7061, TA77-B7061, FT77A-B7059, FT77A-B7059-LE, FT77B-B7059 barebones systems that are designed to provide advanced computing performance and expand computational capabilities. For general server computing environments and mainstream markets, TYAN present its S7050, S7050-DLE and S7052 motherboards, as well as the GN70-B7056, GT24-B7066 and TN70-B7066 system solutions that offer balanced performance with cost-effective deployment and flexible features.  For cloud computing or IPDC environments, TYAN presents YR190-B7058-X2 that is easy to deploy and reduces cost.  All of the TYAN platforms support Intel Xeon E5-2600 v2 series processors simply through a BIOS update.

For high-density GPGPU deployment, TYAN presents the FT77B-B7059, which is designed to solve massive computing workloads and deliver extreme performance in an industry standard rack-mounting 4U chassis with up to (8) GPUs and (10) 3.5” HDD support. The server platform supports (2) Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v2 product family, (8) PCI-E Gen. 3 x16 slots for up to (8) double-width GPGPU/Coprocessor modules, (12+12) DDR-III R/U-DIMM, (2) GbE/10GbE ports, (10) 3.5” Internal HDDs and an integrated BMC for iKVM function.  The extra (10) 3.5” HDDs capability provides higher storage capacity at much lower cost range. In addition to high GPGPU deployment density, the TYAN FT77B-B7059 platform extends the max-power of deployed GPGPU/coprocessor modules from 225W to 300W, which leads to more Teraflops per system.

For VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) applications, TYAN presents the GA80-B7061 for high-performance VDI deployment in a 1U form factor. The server platform supports (2) Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v2 product family, (2) PCI-E Gen. 3 x16 slots for up to (2) double-width VDI modules, (8+8) DDR-III R/U-DIMM, (2) GbE ports, (4) 2.5” hot-swapable HDDs and integrated BMC for iKVM function. With (2) high-end VDI adapters deployed, the TYAN GA80-B7061 platform supports up to (4) dedicated
