Exactly ;)

 

Just one CD, install the OS and you're done! :D

 

Couple of questions, someone might know the answers.

 

The board supports SLI mode, where you can insert 2 identical graphics cards and link them via supplied "Gold fingers" cable. It say`s in manual that its only supported in Windows. Not that I want to use this feature, just curious if it works in Linux.

 

Next one is tricky to explain due to not knowing the correct terminology.....

 

In windows, there is a program that makes both cores work at same time, or manages them to work more efficient, i suspect this is built into Linux kernel? as it seems pretty efficient to me viewing the cpu usage of the cores in gkrellm

Cheers for info, most Linux users are not gamers, including me, so rightly so, I just like playing a few games via Cedega, Hallf Life 2, Battlefield 1942, Battlefield 2 and GTA Vice City. Oh and Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 hehhe.

 

Nothing there needing SLI

 

But if someone programs full SLI support, can only be a plus.
