Modify nForce4 Ultra --> SLI

[_xxx_]

Obviously there's an easy way to turn any nF4 Ultra into nF4 SLI. Here...

But it is still slower right? Or were the test setups different in memory/cpu speeds as well?

It's about 10% slower than "normal" SLI, because instead of workin in 8x/8x mode, it works in 16x/2x mode. So one of the cards gets less bandwidth, meaning it slows the whole thing down a bit. Still, 90% aren't bad, especially for free.

You'd think if someone was going to spend $1000 on graphics cards they could spend an extra $50 to get a sli motherboard...
