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.
