NVIDIA

®

Hybrid SLI™ technology

The motherboard supports the NVIDIA

®

Hybrid SLI™ technology that includes two

primary features: GeForce

®

Boost and HybridPower™. GeForce

®

Boost enhances the

performance of NVIDIA discrete Graphics Process Units (dGPU) when they work with the

onboard motherboard GPU (mGPU). HybridPower™ unleashes the graphics performance

of the dGPU and enables low-power operation when the performance of the dGPU is not

needed. You can switch from the dGPU(s) to the mGPU for a quiet, power-saving computer

environment.

• Hybrid SLI technology is supported by Windows

®

Vista™ / 7 only.

• Hybrid SLI technology requires at least 2GB system memory to activate.
• GeForce Boost supports up to two displays simultaneously (both connected to either the

mGPU or the dGPU).

• When two or more displays are connected to both the mGPU and the dGPU, the

Hybrid SLI mode is disabled and the multi-display mode is enabled. In the multi-display

mode, up to four displays can be connected (two displays driven by the mGPU and two

displays by the dGPU).

• HybridPower requires displays to be connected to the mGPU. HybridPower cannot be

enabled when displays are driven through the dGPU.

• HybridPower and GeForce Boost are supported by certain set of dGPUs. Go to

www.nvidia.com/hybridsli to learn the supported GPUs.
