2.5 SLITM Operation Guide This motherboard supports NVIDIA® SLITM (Scalable Link Interface) technology that allows you to install two identical NVIDIA® SLITM enabled PCI Express x16 graphics cards. Currently, NVIDIA® SLITM technology supports Windows® XP, XP 64-bit, VistaTM and VistaTM 64-bit OS. Please follow the installation procedures in this section. SLITM Technology Requirements 1. You should have two identical SLITM-ready graphics cards that are NVIDIA® certified. 2. Make sure that your graphics card driver supports the NVIDIA® SLITM technology. Download the latest driver from the NVIDIA® website (www.nvidia.com). 3. Make sure that your power supply unit (PSU) can provide at least the minimum power required by your system. Enjoy the benefit of SLITM Step 1. Install the identical SLITM-ready graphics cards that are NVIDIA® certified because different types of graphics cards will not work together properly. (Even the GPU chips version shall be the same.) Insert one graphics card into PCIE2 slot and another graphics card to PCIE4 slot. Make sure that the cards are properly seated on the slots. Step2. Step3. If required, connect an auxiliary power source to the PCI Express graphics cards. Align and insert the SLI Bridge to the goldfingers on each graphics card. Make sure that the SLI Bridge is firmly in place. 18
