NVIDIA GeForce 9300 Chipset
The NVIDIA GeForce ® 9300 motherboard GPU is the industry’s first desktop PC
singlechip solution for Intel CPUs integrating multiple dedicated processors for
DirectX 10 shader model 4.0 3D graphics and PureVideo ® HD processor, SLI
technology, storage, communications audio, and system management processors.
All these leading edge features are delivered in a small form factor for radically
improved Vista Premium capable PCs.
Hybrid SLI TM
Hybrid SLI TM technology is a unique hybrid multi-GPU technology built upon
NVIDIA. Hybrid SLI technology today includes two primary feaures: GeForce
Boost and HybridPower TM . GeForce Boost turbo-charges performance of NVIDIA
descrete graphics cards when combined with this series motherboard GPUs.
HybridPower TM unleashed graphics performance when needed and enabled
discrete GeForce GPU(s) to the motherboard GPU for a quiet, low power PC
experience.
Due to the chipset limitation, this motherboard does not support HybridPower.
NVIDIA ® CUDA TM Technology
NVIDIA ® Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA TM ) Technology, the world’s
only C programming language environment, allows programmers to develop faster
software applications through tapping on the multi-core parallel processing power
of GPUs. With this technology, you can convert movies and videos to your iPod,
Zune, and PSP much faster with CUDA-enabled applications.
NVIDIA ® PhysX TM Technology
NVIDIA PhysX TM Technology is a real-time physics engine that uses physics
calculations to provide you with smoother PC and console gaming experience.
NVIDIA PhysX TM , with its multi-core processing GPU and specifically-designed
hardware acceleration features, delivers rich and unparalleled levels of realism in
your gaming environment.
Gigabit LAN solution
Gigabit LAN is the networking standard for the early future and is ideal for handling
large amounts of data such as video, audio, and voice. See page 1-28 for details.
