XFX 680i LT SLI

Several months ago the first 680i SLI motherboard first appeared on the US market. On paper this board appeared to be solution that the enthusiast community had been long awaiting to take their Core 2 Duo processors to the next level of performance. After several BIOS revisions and a less than auspicious beginning what was initially seen on paper transcended by most accounts into a fully functional, kick-ass motherboard.

Let's fast-forward a couple of months which puts us about two to three weeks ago. NVIDIA® and the same group of partners brought to market the 680i LT SLI motherboard. This product contained much of the heart and all of the soul of its big brother but was aimed more at the "Extreme Gamer" and cost approximately $50 less. We'll expound in detail on the differences other than cost later in this review.
