In this review PCStats is testing out one such option, the Gigabyte GA-K8N Ultra-SLI motherboard. This board is targeted towards the mainstream market (as mainstream as SLI gets, anyhow), and supports all Socket 939 AMD Athlon64/FX processors. With room for up to 4GB of unbuffered DDR RAM, its dual PCIe x16 slots handle the graphical duties with a full 16 lanes of PCIe with a single videocard and two sets of eight when in SLI mode with compatible nVidia-based cards. The SLI bridge connector comes included (GC-SLI). In terms of features, the GA-K8N Ultra-SLI includes an additional four channel Serial ATA/RAID controller, two Gigabit NICs (neither of which run through the PCI bus), IEEE 1394b, 7.1-channel audio, SPDIF in/out, and of course Gigabyte's essential dual BIOS feature.
