NVIDIA Announces 3-Way SLI
Today NVIDIA announced 3-Way SLI for 680i and 780i motherboards. This technology enables the use of three graphics processing units (GPUs) on a single computer, allowing up to three GeForce graphics cards to be used in a single machine. Only problem is that no one really knew about it. Kyle over at [H]ard|OCP gives us his thoughts.
NVIDIAs new 3-way SLI delivers up to a 2.8x performance increase over a single GPU system, giving high-end gamers 60 frames per second at resolutions as high as 2560×1600 and with 8x antialiasing. 3-way SLI technology means you no longer have to dial back the image quality settings on the newest PC games. For example, gamers with 3-way SLI can play Crysis at high resolutions such as 1920×1200 with all the advanced DirectX 10 effects such as motion blur, ambient occlusion, and soft shadows turned on.
