The photo booty shooty
Who needs internet erotica when you can look at images like these eh ? Study many photo's in the image gallery.
Yes yes, that's the carton box. Yes really. Fun aside, always include a photo of the box so you know what you are looking for in the stores.
Right here we have the eVGA nForce 680i SLI. Obviously with the "i" for Intel and this board is for Socket 775. The mainboard is the A1 model. Quite an impressive motherboard folks! Let us sift through the photo's now.
Here we see the included bundle.
- EVGA nForce 680i SLI NVIDIA Socket 775 ATX Motherboard
- User's Manual
- Drivers CD
- Optional Fan
- SLI Bridge
- (2) Two SATA Cables
- Y-Cable SATA Power Connector
- IDE Cable
- FDD Cable
- I/O Back Panel Shield
I/O wise we can find 2 x 10/100/1000 LAN (lovely!) 1 x PS2 Keyboard, 1 x PS2 Mouse, 10 x USB2.0 ports (6 external + 4 internal headers), Multi (8) channel Audio connectors (Line-in, Line-out, MIC) and even an SPDIF optical.
EVGA nForce 750i SLI FTW For The Win review
eVGA decided to make a new cheaper mainboard opposed to 780/790, designed it l33t, sexy yet offer two or maybe three features less than these sub 300 USD counterparts. And they named their new baby the eVGA nForce 750 FTW. Where FTW literally means "For The Win". Now if you send a product with "FTW" in the actual name then as a company you need to have some pretty big balls, as any reviewer will see if that product lives up-to the reputation. You know what, you need balls as big as an NVIDIA colored bull.
NVIDIA eVGA nFORCE 680i LT SLI
Let me put it simple .. The 68i SLI LT mainboard is a regular 680i SLI mainboard in all it's ways yet to cut costs there have been several functions stripped. For example .. you'll have to miss out on the 3rd "graphics" PCI-Express slot (the 8x one), you'll only have one GBit/s Ethernet connector, you lost the passively cooled SSP and MCP, it's now done with active fans, you loose LinkBoost and some tweaking options in the BIOS. Other stuff you'll miss are the black PCB, diagnostic LEDs, reset and power off/on micro switches in the mainboard PCB and some other small stuff. We'll explain ... click me !
eVGA nForce 680i SLI mainboard review
We started using this mainboard pretty much the minute we received it which was early November and ever since it has become the #1 mainboard for testing graphics cards. Intense stability, hefty tweaking features and massive performance. These are the three things I immediately think about when we talk about the 680i mainboards.
