| I hesitated on purchasing this board because of the reviews and concerns about memory! At first I would get 2/3rd through the OS installation and get the BSoD. I then went into the BIOS and Disabled EPP 2.0 Memory until after the OS installation. Changed to Auto and again the BSoD! OK what do I do now? I disabled it until I can figure out what the problem is? I run both Vista and XP w/Removable drives. (Business and Games).
My System...EVGA nForce 790iUltra, Intel Q9550, Crucial 2@2048mb DDR3 2000 Mhz. NForce GTX280
I was a little nervous about the memory and still may return for a better exchange. Overall great board!

| Nothing wronge with this board
running 2x2gig ballistic tracer(not even rec. for this board)
running great, not one lockup I've got XP32bit and Vista Ulti64bit
make sure you have a very good PSU for the system you build |

| I used this mobo to build my first gaming rig this last summer. I used intel Quad Core 2.4ghz,Ultra x-pro 750w Psu, Corsair DDR3 1333Mhz 2 x 1024,9600GT 1GB Graphics card. I has been running great for 5 months on every game from Stalker,Oblivion,Half life 2,Vegas 6,Medieval II,LOTOR.No troubles. |

| Im a 3 yr tech support mgr & tried everything one can try to get these to run at advertised specs. The mobo wont POST when running the dimms at advertised specs & all 4 dimm sockets are populated. I have 2 identical PCs. Same w/ both despite dimm swapping. I called EVGA & immediately they directed me to Corsairs FAQ page stating the following:Question: I have 2 Corsair dimms that work fine together. When I add 2 more dimms of the matching part #, they wont work. ANSWER:We test these dimms as theyre sold. In other words, a 2GB kit is tested only as a pair, not w/ 2 other dimms. Were not certain how 2 kits when put together will perform. While it is possible to get 2 kits working together, it will most likely require adjustments to be made in your BIOS to get the modules up & running. If possible, we suggest lowering your dimm frequency & slightly increasing northbridge voltage] I wish that worked. I tweaked the dimm & NB voltages but no. |

| Suggestion dont gamble with this board. If your looking for a stable/reliable board; NOT the one to buy. 3 weeks still cant get Vista 32 or 64 installed without corruption issues. You may have a 50/50 chance of getting one that works correctly. Lock-ups and crashes is all Ive dealt with, even if I got it working correctly Id be to scared overclocking with this thing. |

 PCI
Express 2.0 - High End Graphics Have Arrived
PCI Express Base 2.0 specification doubles the interconnect bit rate from
2.5 GT/s to 5 GT/s in a seamless and compatible manner. The performance
boost to 5 GT/s is by far the most important feature of the PCI Express
2.0 specifications. It effectively increases the aggregate bandwidth of
a 16-lane link to approximately 16 GB/s. The higher bandwidth will allow
product designers to implement narrower interconnect links to achieve
high performance while reducing cost.
A number
of optimizations and improvements have been made to the protocol and software
layers of the PCI Express architecture in the PCI Express Base 2.0 specification.
These include:
- Dynamic
link speed management – to control the speed at which the link is operating
- Link bandwidth
notification – to notify software (operating system, device drivers,
etc) of changes in link speed and width
- Capability
structure expansion – to expand the control registers to better manage
devices, slots and the interconnect
- Access
control services – optional controls to manage peer-peer transactions
- Completion
timeout control – to define a required disable mechanism plus related
optional enhancements
- Function-level
reset – optional mechanism to reset functions within a device
- Power
limit redefinition – to redefine slot power limit values to accommodate
devices that consume higher power

 SLI
MCPs | Motherboards
To enable NVIDIA SLI technology in your PC, you'll need an SLI-Ready
certified motherboard with an nForce SLI MCP and two physical PCI Express
x16 slots. NVIDIA motherboard partners offer nForce SLI motherboards for
both AMD and Intel CPUs.
What is SLI Technology?
NVIDIA® SLI™ technology is a revolutionary platform innovation that allows
you to intelligently scale graphics performance by combining multiple
NVIDIA graphics solutions in a single system with an NVIDIA nForce® SLI
media and communications processor (MCP).
|
|
How Does SLI Technology Work?
Using proprietary software algorithms and dedicated scalability logic
in each NVIDIA graphics processing unit (GPU) and MCP, NVIDIA SLI technology
delivers up to twice the performance of a single graphics solution.
Note:
- The NVIDIA SLI connector is not used with some mainstream graphics
cards.
- 3-way SLI motherboards must have 3 PCI-E x16 slots.
