Together the NVIDIA SLI patent-pending technologies work seamlessly to deliver heart-pounding PC performance. Depending on the application, NVIDIA SLI can deliver as much as 2x the performance of a single GPU configuration for unparalleled gaming experiences.

Windows Vista Ready
Windows Vista is the first operating system to require a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) to realize the best experience possible.
PCI Express 2.0 Support
PCI Express Base 2.0 specification doubles the interconnect bit rate from 2.5 GT/s to 5 GT/s in a seamless and compatible manner. The performance boost to 5 GT/s is by far the most important feature of the PCI Express 2.0 specifications. It effectively increases the aggregate bandwidth of a 16-lane link to approximately 16 GB/s. The higher bandwidth will allow product designers to implement narrower interconnect links to achieve high performance.

I've had this card for a few days now. I think this a nice card if you want performance and don't have a lot of money to spend. I am able to play game old and new with graphic settings on high and at 1680x1050. Some games are more demanding than others, but this card gets the job done. The only downside is that I'm unable reduce the idle fan speed under 60 percent with the evga precision software. It seems to be a problem with the last or newer revision of this card which has 1 6-pin power connector instead of 2.
