Introduction of nForce 590 Motherboards

Motherboard Features

Motherboards based on NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI x16 technology support the
innovative 64-bit AMD Athlon64 FX and dual core multi-tasking Athlon64 X2
processors with HyperTransport Technology. The SLI x16 version of the
motherboard series delivers leading-edge performance with both of the benefits
from 64-bit multi-tasking dual core AMD processors and NVIDIA Scalable Link
Interface (SLI) Technology with the latest Dual PCI-Express for NVIDIA Dual
Graphic Processing Unit ready platform. Utilizing the 64-bit multi-tasking socket
AM2 solution and dual channel DDR2 800, memory size expandable to 8.0GB,
this motherboard series meets the demands of computing in the future.
The NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI chipset offers ULTRA ATA 133 and Serial ATA
RAID 0, 1, 0+1 functions to accelerate hard disk drives and guarantee data
security without failure in advanced computing applications.
The motherboard provides dual Gigabit LAN by using two NVIDIA Giga-LAN
controllers both supporting 10M/100M/1Gbps data transfer rate and full duplex
or half duplex transportation. The embedded 8-channel AC'97 CODEC is fully
TM
compatible with Sound Blaster Pro standards and offers you home cinema
quality and complete software compatibility.
Two 16X PCI-Express graphics slots deliver up to 4Gbyte/sec data transfer rate
at each relative direction which is fully compatible with the latest NVIDIA SLI
Technology. And, two PCI-Express x1 slots offers expandability for future PCI-
E devices at 512Mbyte/sec concurrently, over 3.5 times more bandwidth than
PCI at 133Mbyte/sec, tackling the most demanding multimedia tasks.
The embedded USB controller has the capability to support up to 10 USB 2.0
ports, delivering 480Mb/s bandwidth each and the embedded Firewire
controller allows connection and use of IEE1394 compliant devices.
