NVIDIA nForce® 750a SLI®
NVIDIA nForce® 750a SLI® media and communications processors (MCPs) are the foundation for the world’s ultimate gaming PC. It supports the NVIDIA® Scalable Link Interface (SLI) technology that allows two graphics processing units (GPUs) in a single system. The NVIDIA nFORCE® 750a SLI® chipset also supports six (6) Serial ATA 3 Gb/s devices, PCI Express x16 slots with NVIDIA® SLI tm support at dual x8 mode, and up to 12 USB 2.0 ports.
NVIDIA SLI® Technology
NVIDIA SLI® (Scalable Link Interface) makes use of the PCI Express 2.0 bus architecture´s increased bandwidth and features intelligent hardware and software that allows two GPUs to efficiently work together to deliver earth-shattering, scalable performance. For some applications, this translates into nearly double the performance!
PCIe 2.0 support
This motherboard supports the latest PCIe 2.0 devices for double speed and bandwidth which enhances system performance.
HyperTransport 3.0
HyperTransport™ 3.0 technology provides 2.6 times more bandwidth than HyperTransport™ 1.0, radically improving system efficiency to create a smoother, faster computing environment.
DDR3 2000(O.C.) Support
This motherboard supports DDR3 2000(O.C.) that provides faster data transfer rate and more bandwith to increase memory computing efficiency, enhancing system performance in 3D graphics and other memory demanding applications.
NVIDIA Hybrid SLI® (GeForce Boost) Support
Hybrid SLI® technology is a unique hybrid multi-GPU technology. It turbo-charges performance of discrete graphics cards when combined with the motherboard GPUs.
