I am not up on all the Phenom II trivia. I thought thy made a 775 socket chip.
My bad! :)

Is it true that NVIDIA is going to allow SLI on all Intel and AMD chipsets? Hope so. NVIDIA should stop being greedy and just allow it. If they allowed it maybe their sales will boost up.
I have a single 9800GTX with my 790X board and i use my AMD chipsets because they are better overclockers and better performers. I don't care for SLI cause i usually don't have the money or power to handle two cards, and when its time to upgrade there is a single cards that performs better than two of mine ever could.
No, this only means that SLI is available in some sort of form to all platforms.
For Intel X58 & P55 is is lisenced.
For AMD Phenom II CPUŽs there is nVidia nForce 780 & 790a chipset based motherboards
And for Core 2 Duo & Quad CPUŽs ther is nForce 750i, 780i and 790i chipset based motherboards.
This fud comment & news item does not mean naything else.
Great news!
If this is gonna work on my x48 mobo, i'm not upgrading to i7 next year :)))
Any news about progress?
I'll say probably if the person who hacked this will most likely face a law suit from NVIDIA so I guess this hack won't see the light of day.
Blame NVIDIA for being so greedy not to license SLI for all chipset platforms.
Yep. I did think why he didŽnt tweak his patch for release and then post about it.
i doubt the guy who hacked sli will be as stupid as to leak it under his name... seriously...
the dream is over?
what ever happened to this???
It is not over till it is over.
We need info!
I agree.
To Anyone working at Nvidia;
Look into this as this may get you a promotion or something as there would be an increase in video card sales all of a sudden due to people wanting video cards to Sli on boards they bought because they overclock way better then the crappy boards you sold. It is one of the reasons why ATI got a boom in sales. Want them to cast their ATI cards aside? Well then help this guy get these drivers to this website and get someone to make a post about it. You will come out smelling like roses if you attach a letter to it saying something like: "We feel that everyone should be able to enjoy Sli on whatever platform they are running!" Heck you can even attach a simpathy card like: "We understand these economic times and wish to do our part to help out!". Can you imagine how many G92 cards you will sell (or whatever name you want to call them at the time)? What is better to get more investors onboard: 1) Give them an outlandish story on how your going to help make graphics 570X better over the course of the next 6 years or 2) Show them that you have a major market share and are constantly growing? It does not take a rocket scientist to figure this out. If I was an investor and I saw how ATI is scooping market share, then I would be very hesitant to invest in Nivida as they show no adaption capabilities to the market and are allowing their competition to gain market share. I would especially be resiliant to hand you my money to invest in your company coming out with the 570X story because it makes you look like your reaching for straws as you have nothing else to grab on to. It's nice to walk into the investors meeting with slides of market share and not having to do that.
Thank you for your time
Sincerely,
Sadasius
I agree, NVIDIA are a bunch of greedy morons. I bet they would have sold more cards if they allowed SLI on all chipsets. And not only that, they charge way more for their products that isn't even worth it. Is it so hard NVIDIA to allow that? Guess not.
I think most people that want SLI buy nvidia mobo's. Not to mention what they make off licensing. I agree it would be nice for us consumers but I also believe that most people simply don't have a clue.
Like my buddy works in a computer shop, a customer said he wanted the best money could buy. The kid bought a phenom II board and got a 3x2 gig pack of memory saying he got it for triple channel memory... Had the guy mentioned SLI he would have no doubt made sure he got an SLI compatible board. Regardless of which platform OC's better.
Edit - the funny part is the customer was totally pumped about his new rig's specs.

If nvlddmkm.sys nvbridge.kdm read SB.PCI0 as SB.PCI0.SLIC SLI is supported.. that all folks.
then how come nobody implemented this so far?
No freakin way. Now I need to get a couple G92 (or whatever their called now) cards to try this out. Thanks! :up:
Bios modders at mydigitallife.info forums would take a look into this :)
Saaya can't you contact that guy on that chinese forum ? if we get the fix I can test it on several mobo's... 9800GT's and 285 ready to scream
Is this works on Rampage Extreme?
