Asus P5ND2-SLI Deluxe nVidia nForce4 Chipset 1066MHz FSB Dual Channel DDR2 667 Socket 775 ATX Motherboard with 2x PCI-Express X16, 8-Channel Audio, GbLAN, USB 2.0, IEEE 1394 Firewire, SATA / RAID (Retail) (Discontinued)

Of major interest to performance enthusiasts is the Nvidia SLI technology (Scalable Link Interface), which enables users to take two GPUs (graphics processing units) and plug them into a single PC, offering greater scalability. The SLI technology takes advantage of the greater bandwidth offered by PCI Express, which unlike PCI, is a serial link, enabling more data to move through fewer lines than via the parallel delivery of PCI.

The nForce 4 chipsets will also offer native firewall solutions built into the core logic. The key concern for PC users is security within networks, particularly if it's done via wireless connectivity into broadband networks. By making the firewall native in the PC, we can provide a level of protection for the enthusiast. The chip set will enable a second hard drive to be plugged into the system and automatically set up, protecting the data in the first hard drive should a failure occur. It also will alert the user if the hard drive is lost.

The chipsets are targeted at the high-end PC users, however such capabilities are beginning to play a larger role in the enterprise. Corporations have increasing demand for streaming video in businesses and security is vital to all business and networking functions.
