I wrote a pre-sale evaluation back in January 2005 here: http://lists.leap-cf.org/pipermail/leaplist/2005-January/000532.html ... Tyan S2895 -- nForce Pro 2200+2050
Just know that the pre-sale evaluation was of the nForce4, and didn't take the nForce Pro 2200 and 2200+2050 designs into consideration.
E.g., the nForce Pro 2200 has 1.0GBps (2) PCI-X 1.0 channels. Any off-chipset NIC is typically connected to those, so there is not the same bottleneck as a legacy 0.125GBps PCI channel like on the nForce4.

I'm trying RHEL4 U1 on an HP xw9300 (nForce4). So far, I can't get dhcp to work after it pxe boots (nfs install). I installed from CD's and everthing seems fine so far. Haven't tried nvidia's driver yet, but I know the x86_64 driver is going to tell me I have to run Kernel 2.6.11 or greater.
