NVIDIA Corp. is keen on creating chipsets targeting enthusiasts and users demanding high performance. ASUSTeK is an expert in creating, possibly, the best mainboards in the world. Today X-bit labs attempts to find out how ASUS managed to produce the cream of all mainboards: a platform based on NVIDIA nForce4 SLI 16x core-logic. Will the newcomer boast boosted or reduced speed? Find out now!

The two platforms differ by less than 1 frame per second, which is in fact smaller than the measurement error range.
The second test from the 3DMark05 suite brings the same results.
And the third test confirms once again that having two full-width PCI Express x16 slots has no effect on the performance of the SLI-compatible graphics subsystem. This is at least true for the nForce4 SLI X16 chipset that communicates with the CPU across 8-bit HyperTransport channels.
