The MSI K9N SLI Platinum took our usual barrage of tests without any trouble, so it shouldnt prove too much trouble for anyone familiar with PC installations to get this board up and running. There are still a few software issues, however, such as NT...
Abstract: Upgrade to an AM2 Athlon 64 system now Picture 4 With promises of 35W Athlon 64 desktop CPUs, RAM speeds of up to 1,066MHz and the awesome FX-62, the new socket from AMD should appeal to everyone. And with prices ranging from £43 to £116, theres a bo...
The K9N SLI Platinum is a poor start for nForce 570, as its a worse overclocker than its predecessor, nForce4 SLI. That said, early nForce4 SLI boards required numerous BIOS updates before being transformed into the tweakable monsters they are today, ...

If the results of our performance tests make one thing clear, its that the nForce 570 SLI chipset has no problem keeping up with its more expensive sibling. The loss of true dual 16-lane SLI doesnt have an impact on the performance of a pair of GeFor...
