| Enjoy 32 PCI Express Lanes with A8N32-SLI Deluxe and P5N32-SLI Deluxe In accordance to the release of Nvidia®’s nForce™ 4 SLI X16 chipset, ASUSTeK Computer Inc. (ASUS) today introduced the A8N32-SLI Deluxe and P5N32-SLI Deluxe motherboards, which support dual PCI Express x16 slots running at full speed to liberate graphics cards from the narrow bandwidth platform of x8 speed only. “ASUS proudly announces the A8N32-SLI Deluxe and P5N32-SLI Deluxe motherboards, which are the most powerful motherboards in our product line", said Joe Hsieh, Director of ASUS Motherboard Business. "The obstacle during development is to include a reliable thermal solutions. With ASUS’ innovative designs to bring out the real potential of Nvidia’s latest chipsets, gamers can enjoy faster graphics and higher video quality.” High-performance GPU (graphics processing unit) is one of the hottest components in a computer system. SLI motherboards, with two graphics cards, require the best heat dissipation designs. One of the reliable thermal solutions is Stack Cool 2. Originally implemented on the Intel 955 and 945 chipset platforms, the A8N32-SLI Deluxe and P5N32-SLI are the first Nvidia-chipset based motherboards with this zero noise feature. Stack Cool 2 is a fan-less cooling design that effectively transfers heat generated by the critical components to the other side of the specially designed PCB (printed circuit board) for heat dissipation and significantly decreases component temperature. The P5N32-SLI Deluxe further pushes Intel based motherboards well into the extreme gaming segment. The dual x16 SLI architecture provides excellent scalability, and of course, renowned ASUS performance and overclocking quality will ensure an unparalleled gaming experience for Intel fans. The A8N32-SLI Deluxe and P5N32-SLI Deluxe will be available in September. Below are their brief specifications.
