 |
|
Greetings,
I see the new 590 Sli chipset has a feature called LinkBoost.
This feature is supported for the 7950GX2 and the 7900GTX.
But I wonder is that the only two?
I am looking to buy a 7950 GT and amnot sure if it supports LinkBoost?
Anyone know?
thanks,
Quentin Jones |

Don't know for sure, since I don't have that particular model, but I
don't think it does - NV originally limited this to 7900 GTX/GX2 and up
models. No big deal - just set the speeds manually - it is much like
having memory that doesn't have NV EPP: nothing prevents you from
overclocking it, it just won't be auto-magic on an EPP capable
motherboard.

Hiya,
Thanks for your reply,
Yah,
I am using a FoxConn C51XEM mainboard which has excellent over-clocking abilities.
Also,
it comes with nTune - which adjust the clocking as high as will work.
So,
perhaps that does the same thing as LinkBoost?
(As all Link Boost does is adjust the PCIe clock up by 25%,
so I figure nTune will do the same when it finds it is stable.)
I hope :-)
