  • SLI without Nforce mobo

    Read it and weep. It has been verified (unofficial of course) Project xDevs: Контент / Публикации и статьи / Activating NVIDIA SLI on all motherboards, detailed HOW-TO

    It seems Nvidia had been shining us all along with driver locks just to get us to by their overpriced SLI boards that aren't as stable or OC'able and the Intel counterparts. This seems to be old news but I figured I would share it with my fellow UD3P owners. This works on Intel and AMD Chipsets:

    Re: SLI without Nforce mobo

    Halooooo from beyondo!

    I love this note, music to my ears ... I am running GA-EP45-UD3P mobo and I'm thinking of trying SLI on it. I h8 - ATI video drivers so I use Nvidia GPU's. I know with SLI there's lots of profiles and tweaking and such to be done.

    So, how did this work for U? was it necessary to use this patcher or not? I'm looking for info about it before I guy the 2nd card.

    I hope your subscribed to this =old news post= thanks

      Guess it works only with modified drivers. Anyway, I have a P5Q Deluxe and will try that patch with a pair of GTS 450 and / or GTX460.

        Re: SLI without Nforce mobo

        You cannot 'SLI' a 450 and a 460 model gpu ...
        here's the basics -> FAQ "Will these two cards work in SLI?" - NVIDIA Forums
        The 9800 I have is a great card and to save $$ I can buy another cheap and run them in sli ... directX 10 ... I figure that should last another year or so. I hope.

        Good Luck, have fun!

          You know how stupid that is right?

          AMD have the problem of setting there IQ slightly lower with default settings on their drivers, on the other hand Nvidia's tend to do strange things (like make the fan go 100% all the time). It's apples and oranges dude.
