Intel X58 first non-NVIDIA Chipset to get SLI->

Submitted by Vigile
Vigile writes "In a somewhat surprising move from a company that is used to holding its proprietary technologies close to the chest, NVIDIA has announced that it is opening up a "certified SLI motherboard" program for boards using the upcoming Intel X58 chipset. The X58 is Intel's core logic offering for Nehalem/Bloomfield processors and many people wondered how NVIDIA would support SLI for a platform they had admitted to not developing a chipset for. At first NVIDIA was pushing the use of their dedicated nForce 200 chip but have instead decided to open up the SLI technology to X58 motherboards that meet certain NVIDIA requirements. This leaves a lot of questions about NVIDIA's previous SLI statements, how the pricing of the certification affects partners and if NVIDIA's chipset business is truly at its end now."
