If you're building a gaming PC, you already know the best place to start is with the right platform: an NVIDIA nForce® SLI™-Ready motherboard, a pair of NVIDIA SLI-Ready graphics cards, and an SLI-Ready power supply.
But why stop there?
When developing the NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI MCP, NVIDIA engineers relied heavily on the products below to achieve the best performance and overclocking results. After using these components to test and build the NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI MCP, NVIDIA recommends them for the best out-of-the-box experience when used with NVIDIA nForce products.
Get faster bus speeds – out of the box!
NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI and 590 SLI media and communications processors (MCPs) are designed to increase bus speeds when matched with certain components, including system memory. NVIDIA worked with leading memory suppliers to create a new standard for memory called Enhanced Performance Profiles (EPP) now found in select certified SLI-Ready memory modules.
Finally, components like CPU coolers and power supplies have been tested and recommended by NVIDIA for use with NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI-based motherboards:
