bottom of the plastic standoff so that the flat portion rests on the metal. The
adapter cards and the screws holding them down will keep your board flat. The
fastening screw should not short any of the traces on the motherboard. Make
certain that you do not overtighten the screw, as it will damage the mother-
board and possibly break internal traces in the surrounding area. The hole you
should use is located at the top-center of the board where the adapter cards
are fastened to the case.

3. Installing Memory

Since TYAN boards are manufactured with performance in mind, you should
use add-in components that match. Some DIMM modules may seem to be high
quality because of name or feel but that does not guarantee real-world
usability. Some cheaper or OEM memory may have brand-name components,
but they may contain inferior or substandard parts which do not meet the
critical tolerances our products require. Because of this, your memory may not
work correctly in a TYAN board though it may work well in a competitor's
board. This is because many of our competitors do not adhere to the strict
tolerances required for high performance. If you buy a TYAN board, you are
getting the best system available. To make installation easy and trouble free,
get high quality parts. Some brands we recommend are Corsair Microsystems,
Kingston Memory, and QesTec Incorporated. These DIMMs have proven to
be very stable on our boards and perform extremely well. For a list of recom-
mended memory vendors, please visit Tyan's website at www.tyan.com (go to
the Memory Support area in the Support section).
This table lists some
of the possible memory
configurations. Not all
possible configurations
are listed.
