NVIDIA's 680i SLI Chipset Ready for Primetime

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the power-up dept.

AnInkle writes, "The Tech Report conducts their usual exhaustive evaluation of NVIDIA's other big launch today, the nForce 680i SLI. The new chipset pairs an already proven south bridge chip with a new north bridge that has impressive overclocking potential and a redesigned (read: fast) memory controller. Combined with a motherboard design, production-quality BIOS and polished tweaking software that are all attractive and retail-ready, you end up with a 'complete reference platform that's perfect for picky enthusiasts and serious overclockers,' if you want to pay for it."

    No....this article from today: http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/11/ 08/1942207 is the GPU they recently released. The article from *this* post is about their new SLI-compatible chipset. Completely different hardware...

    I don't know how you could be posting on ./ without having seen this phenomenon before. Unless you have a budget of infinity dollars, your technology will always become dated, sometimes before you even buy it.
