Installing and Configuring the EVGA nForce 680i SLI Motherboard 28. Define the applications to accelerate by clicking Program Prioritized by FirstPacket. 29. Click Add to browse for an executable gamming applications. For example, if you want to accelerate a game such as Serious Sam 2, look for the Sam2.exe and add it. 30. Click Apply. Note: Only applications that are added to the Programs Prioritized by FirstPacket section are prioritized and benefit from FirstPacket technology TCP/IP Acceleration Note: Enabling TCP/IP acceleration enhances your network performance but can cause your network traffic to bypass the firewall because all processes are off-loaded to the hardware. NVIDIA TCP/IP Acceleration technology is a networking solution that moves the processing of TCP/IP network traffic from your computer's CPU to its nForce hardware resulting in greatly improved system performance. NVIDIA TCP/IP Acceleration provides deep levels of networking and traffic inspections at full-duplex gigabit Ethernet speeds. Overall system performance is greatly improved because the CPU is not tied up processing network traffic, especially at gigabit Ethernet speed. xliv
