Normally quite happy to toot its hardware horn, Nvidia practically skipped the PowerPoint slide on the chipset.<br /> Why? Like Intel’s x48, the 780i isn’t really that new. In fact, those familiar with the 680i are well acquainted with the 780i, which is pretty much a 680i with an extra chip (interestingly named the Nforce 200) thrown in to add PCI-E 2.0 support and a full x16 tri-SLI mode. </p> <p>Click Read More for more.  </p> <p><a href="http://www.maximumpc.com/article/xfx_nforce_780i_sli">read more</a></p> http://www.maximumpc.com/article/xfx_nforce_780i_sli#comments Hardware March 2008 Reviews Motherboards From the Magazine 780i build a pc Gordon hardware mobo motherboard nforce pci-e 2.0 penryn quad core Review sli xfx 2008 Fri, 08 Feb 2008 14:35:25 -0600 Gordon Mah Ung 1867 at http://www.maximumpc.com http://www.maximumpc.com/article/asus_p5e3_deluxe_wi_fi_ap <!--paging_filter--><p> We’ll be the first to admit that we were unimpressed by DDR3 when we first tested it last year, but there’s finally a glimmer of hope. </p> <p>What changed our minds? Asus’s spanking-fast P5E3 Deluxe WiFi-AP@n mobo, which uses the enthusiast-oriented X38 chipset. The X38’s main highlights are apparently useful DDR3 support and PCI Express 2.0 support. We say “apparently” in reference to DDR3 because we didn’t have a DDR2 version of the board for a direct comparison, but from our tests, the X38 with DDR3 is a winning combination. Also good to have but not a proven performance boost yet is PCI-E 2.0, which doubles the bandwidth of PCI-E 1.0 from 8GB/s to 16GB/s.
