A well-known maker of mainboards for servers and workstations – IWILL – is demonstrating a prototype of a platform based on highly-anticipated NVIDIA nForce4 core-logic. The DK8ES mainboard not only demonstrates nForce4’s targeting at servers and workstations, but also indicates the chipset’s capability to run two graphics cards at once, yielding higher speed.
