Will NVIDIA support SLI on Intel chipsets ?

Does anyone see to the future? As we can see ATI is merging with AMD, so NVIDIA should really speed up their support for intel. However the first 590 board for intel was anounced by Asus on 20.9. and everybody says that they will cancel their pre-orders because it has an old C19 chipset.

hmm... so another months of waiting for C55 are ahead. 😕

Well my question is, does anyone know if Nvidia will also support Intel chipsets??? like 975 or 965?

It will be a great step for all of us, who are waiting for Intel Gaming solution 😉 :thumbsup:
 
I couldnt care much about Intel chipsets. Any Intel chipset sucks major compared to an nForce.

But I would have to petition for this, because I can definetely see the benefit for the crowd since most people have intel chipsets.

nvidia needs to understand that even if they license Intel chipsets, they will still sell their own nforce chipsets because some people (like me) can see how much better and feature packed their platform is. They will probably sell less of them, but the profit coming from SLI sales (since a lot more people can now have SLI) should easily cover the chipset loss.

Thats right, they will sell a lot more graphic cards of course. Lets see if anyone from Nvidia will be brave enough to do such a step. You can count with my voice for this petition 😉 Anyone else?
 
The way I heard it is that it wasnt nVidia that was the problem but Intel. Intel is going to be calling the shots because thats the way Intel likes things. Its really up to Intel as to wether anything happens or not or how fast I'm thinking.
 
nVidia supports SLI on the 5000X chipset, just with the Quadro drivers. I wonder if anand can test SLI with quadros on the 975 chipset?

not on the Intel platform it doesn't - look at nF4/5 on Intel versus e.g. 975
