What is SLI?
NVIDIA® SLI? technology is a revolutionary platform innovation that allows you to intelligently scale graphics performance by combining multiple NVIDIA graphics solutions in a single system with an NVIDIA nForce® SLI media and communications processor (MCP). With SLI technology in your arsenal, you?ll be truly ready to play the latest hyper-realistic DirectX 10 games the way they're meant to be played.
SLI GPUs | Graphics Cards
NVIDIA SLI GPUs deliver powerful, elegant and super-rich graphics for games and other graphics-intensive applications. Combining two, three or four NVIDIA SLI-Ready certified graphics cards (with the same GPU) in a single system with an nForce SLI MCP results in up to 3.4x the graphics performance.
NVIDIA SLI-Ready GPUs feature dedicated, built-in SLI hardware logic and take advantage of the additional bandwidth of the PCI Express bus architecture. Connected by the SLI connector* (which ships with all SLI-Ready motherboards), each GPU has a maximized connection pathway, and can leverage the second, third or fourth card/s for reaching top-speed performances. SLI Technology can scale both geometry and fill rate performance for multiple GPUs and output in both digital and analog formats for the highest image quality.
*The NVIDIA SLI connector is only used with GeForce 6600 GT products and above.
SLI MCPs | Motherboards
To enable NVIDIA SLI technology in your PC, you'll also need an SLI-Ready certified motherboard with an nForce SLI MCP and two physical PCI Express x16 slots. NVIDIA motherboard partners offer nForce SLI motherboards for both AMD and Intel CPUs.
Quad SLI | Designed for the Uber Gamer
Imagine tearing through today's most advanced PC games with an unheard of 48 gigapixels per second of raw graphics performance, 6 teraflops of compute power, 96 pixel pipes, and an astounding 2 GB of on-board graphics memory. Taking the acclaimed NVIDIA® SLI™ technology to the next level, Quad SLI delivers the most Extreme HD gaming experience available on the PC, and lets you run your favourite games at an unbelievably high resolution of 2560x1600 while maintaining silky smooth frame rates. Industry-leading Quad NVIDIA SLI technology offers amazing performance scaling by implementing 4-way AFR (Alternate Frame Rendering), for the world's fastest gaming solution under Windows Vista with solid, state-of-the-art drivers. Nothing can stop you when you have this kind of hardware on your side.
Crank up the game settings and experience unequaled gaming performance when pairing two dual-GPU NVIDIA® GeForce® 9800 GX2 graphics cards with a new NVIDIA nForce® 790i Ultra SLI motherboard* for Intel CPUs up to 3.4X faster than a single GeForce 8800 GT.
