"The Gigabyte K8NXP-9 was designed as a top-of-the-line nForce4 motherboard"?

I really figured they would i just found it weird that anandtech called it the top of the line motherboard. THnaks for clearing that up

Well remember, there are 3 nForce4 chipsets - the implication is that this board is a top of the line nForce4 Ultra.
 
As an attempt to keep up on technology, could someone please give a quick explaination of what nf4 and SLI are? How is it better and what are the benefits?

Thanks,

Chad

NF4 is just NF3 with PCI-E instead of AGP.

SLI is hooking up two graphics cards for a big performance increase.

Are you sure it's "instead of"? Page 2 of the AnandTech review ("Basic Features") has a table that says the AGP voltage can be set to normal, +0.1 V, +0.2 V, +0.3 V. If there's no AGP on the board, why would there need to be an AGP voltage at all, and how would the AGP voltage be delivered?

Cheers,
Jim
