Fasha Posted December 17, 2005 Posted December 17, 2005 I was about to buy a new Lanparty Expert when my friend said something to me about full SLI support. I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about it and whether or not DFI will be coming out w/ full SLI support soon. Also, if they are, should I wait for it to come out or is it not worth it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fasha Posted December 17, 2005 Posted December 17, 2005 yep the 16x on both cards... is it worth it to go for that? or should I wait for DFI to come out with a board with full SLI support? if so does anyone know how long it will take for this to happen?

Guest Gir Posted December 17, 2005 Posted December 17, 2005 no it's not worth it to wait for that. u dont need 16x on both slots since nothing takes full advantage of even 8x on each slot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonS1mpson Posted December 17, 2005 Posted December 17, 2005 You would notice a difference in F.E.A.R at 2,048x1,536 using twin 7800GTX 512Mb cards (I can't remember the website I saw it done on ), but normal use you will be hard pressed to spot the difference - We'll probably have to wait until next year for the next gen cards to see any sort of noticeable difference Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Games Posted December 17, 2005 Posted December 17, 2005 i dont think we plan on a 16x 16x version as there are no cards that can maximize the 8x 8x lanes of SLI yet, and there's no performance gain that we could see on 16x 16x vs 8x 8x I imagine one day we'll have the 16x 16x version, or possibly even wait until a 24x 24x or something who knows. for now, my favorite board is still the original LanParty NF4 SLI-DR (or Ultra-D, or NF4-D, or SLI-D) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
