NVIDIA nForce4 SLI MCP

NVIDIA® SLI ™ technology revolutionizes PC performance by combining multiple PCI Express GPUs in a single and scalable system!

Gamers and hardcore enthusiasts know that dual GPUs mean increased, supercharged 3D graphics and performance.

PCI Express Architecture

PCI Express is the latest I/O interconnect technology that will replace the existing PCI.

With a bus bandwidth 4 times higher than that of AGP 8X interface, PCI Express x16 bus performs much better in applications such as 3D gaming.

The PCI Express x1 interface creates new usages on desktop PCs e.g., TV tuner, 1394b, and high-speed RAID systems.

SATA 3Gb/s

A8N-SLI supports next-generation SATA hard drives based on the new SATA 3Gb/s storage specification.

Furthermore, the chipset has two dedicated SATA controllers delivering more scalable performance and doubles the bus bandwidth for fast hard drive data retrieval and saves.

NV RAID

The nFORCE4 chipset incorporated four Serial ATA and two parallel connectors with high performance RAID functions in RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 0+1 and JBOD.
