Nvidia has announced that Intel, and the world’s other leading motherboard manufacturers, including Asus, EVGA, Gigabyte, and MSI, have all licensed Nvidia SLI technology.

The technology will be included on their Intel P55 Express Chipset-based motherboards designed for the upcoming Intel Core i7 and i5 processor in the LGA1156 socket.

As a result, customers who purchase a validated P55-based motherboard and Core i7 or Core i5 processor when available can equip their PCs with any combination of Nvidia GeForce GPUs, including Quad SLI, for an ultimate visual computing experience.

“Nvidia and Intel share a combined passion for furthering the PC as the definitive platform for gaming, and this combination will surely be attractive to anyone building or purchasing a brand new PC this fall,” said Clem Russo, VP and general manager of Intel Client Board Division at Intel Corporation.

In addition to raw graphics performance, Nvidia GeForce GPUs also provide gamers with additional capabilities not found on any other discrete graphics solutions, including Nvidia PhysX technology for deeper gaming immersion, and stereoscopic 3D gaming with Nvidia 3D Vision technology, he added.-TradeArabia News Service
