NVIDIA SLI-Ready system memory certification ensures compatibility and system stability with the rest of the SLI ecosystem components including NVIDIA nForce SLI motherboards, NVIDIA GeForce GPUs, and SLI-Ready power supplies. SLI-Ready memory also supports Enhanced Performance Profiles (EPP) 1.0 and 2.0. When paired with a compatible NVIDIA nForce 790i, 780i, 680i SLI, 680i LT SLI or 590 SLI AMD edition-based motherboards, SLI-Ready memory exposes advanced performance memory settings.
Only memory that pass NVIDIA SLI certification can be called "NVIDIA SLI-Ready certified." Be sure to look for the NVIDIA SLI-Ready badge when you buy your system memory.
*Memory testing is performed in dual-DIMM system setup. The dual-DIMM configuration utilizes the entire memory controller data bus. Memories that support EPP2.0 are also tested with the optimized profile memory settings without any CPU overclocking (ie. 0% CPU OC setting) in dual-DIMM configurations. Please note that single channel DIMM setup is not supported.
*Memory testing is performed under two different configurations: single-DIMM and dual-DIMM system setup with standard JEDEC memory timings. The dual-DIMM configuration utilizes the entire memory controller data bus. Memories that support EPP are also tested with the optimized profile memory settings without any CPU overclocking (ie. 0% CPU OC setting) in both single and dual-DIMM configurations. Please note that single channel DIMM setup is not supported.
