Tweakers Australia has posted a review on the Tyan Tiger MPX S2466 motherboard

Dual CPU systems are not for everyone. A lot of people think they simply go out and buy a capable motherboard, a couple of CPUs, and the next thing they know everything will be twice as fast - certainly not the case! This review was my first attempt at running a dual-CPU system, and I was quick to learn that only a handful of applications actually make use of more than one processor. It was nearly a year ago when AMD released their first multiprocessor chipset the 760 MP, which had a lot of potential at the time, and actually performed quite well.

At the start of this year AMD released its second-generation chipset, the 760 MPX, and Tyan was one of the first manufactures to offer a complete board featuring the new chipset.
