MSI, one of the leading computer motherboard manufacturers and the well-known AMD platform solution provider, today announced the debut of nForce4 chipset family motherboards. The MSI K8N Diamond and K8N Neo4 Platinum motherboards offer cinematic processing with powerful PCI Express x16 graphics interface and Nvidia’s exclusive SLI technology.

Ever since AMD Athlon 64 and Athlon64FX seized the crown in the 64-bit processing world; users nowadays have high expectation on AMD64 processor. The cinematic processing for virtual reality and 3D games has become one of the most-expected features by PC enthusiasts and power gamers alike. The PCI Express x16 does not only eliminate the bottleneck of AGP 8X by doubling its speed, but also by substituting the asynchronous transmitter with full-duplex architecture.

The K8N Diamond with Nvidia SLI technology can accelerate the 3D performance by over 180% via two SLI-ready graphics cards. The Nvidia nForce4 chipset features configurable PCI Express lanes for SLI technology, and the graphics interface can be set as a single PCI Express x16 or dual PCI Express x8.
