Today's latest breakthrough in video games is SLI (Scalable Link Interface). This technology is developed by Nvidia and it uses only an NVidia video card. It allows multi GPU that performs in parallel so that the workload of each video card is broken, producing two or more quality on the single output. After reading this article, you can have a clear idea on the SLI and CrossFireX so you can choose the best mothers for building your SLI PC.
With the introduction of the Intel X58 chipset, many dreams have come true computer. Finally, there are motherboards that support both Crossfire offer SLI. Unfortunately, the new chipset also two major drawbacks. First, LGA, this chipset only for current processors are used 1366th And second, the manufacturer free to choose whether to SLI, Crossfire or both the board committed to. So one must read between the lines again accurate, even though current boards use the same X58 chipset all.
There is another that the same technology that is the CrossFireX SLI. It is developed by ATI and can be used with ATI video cards. The only difference between these two is that NVidia can be used only with the same video card, it means they must have the same GPU clock speed and memory. The ATI can be used with different GPU card with the same memory and speed in mind that the support CrossFireX.
To use SLI or CrossFire configuration of your motherboard should be a copy certified NVIDIA SLI or ATI CrossFireX. And you must be at least 2 PCI-E 16x for 2-way and 3 PCI-E 3-way. And finally, your card should be capable of SLI or CrossFire. Most of the latest version of today's video card is SLI and CrossFireX a loan.
