Nešlo by pro nás neangličany udělat aspoň dva české řádky, o čem ten patch je?

Pokud to dobre chapu je to patch ktery enabluje SLI na chipsetech ktere oficialne nepodporuje Nvidia jako SLI Ready a samozrejme musi mit zaroven dva PEG sloty. Vzniklo to na zaklade SLI patche pro Uli 1697, ktery "utekl" a nekdo to "upravil" tak aby to fachalo i na ostatnich chipsetech viz seznam.

Pokiaľ to dobre chapem mali by sa dat rozbehat v SLI rezime aj tie starsie DFI UT NF-4 ULTRA D, ktore este nemali zaliate kontakty na spojenie aby SLI rezim vobec fungoval...

A while back Asrock published a SLI enabling patch for their ULi chipset based motherboards that have two PCI-Express slots. Various rumors suggested that the patch would also function under other chipsets as well, and allow users with other chipsets to use SLI on their non-SLI motherboards. Unfortunately the original version of the patch installs only on ULi 1695/7 chipsets - you couldn’t use it if you didn’t have a motherboard with that particular chipset.
We’ve managed to rip the installer and to create a modified version of the SLI patch that allows you to use it with EVERY motherboard. We couldn’t do in-depth testing on other chipsets, but if the rumors are true then it should definitely work. Feel free to use it at your own risk, and please post the results in our forums. Remember, this is a modified version and is not supported by Asrock, ULi or Nvidia.

GABO podla coho zistim ci mam DFI ktora moze pouzit SLI, ale softwarovo nechce sa mi pozerat na chipset ak sa da ?

No ak das dole chladic tak uvidis ze SMD suciastky na PCB okolo jadra su bud vsetky volne aj s kontaktmi alebo su urcite zaliate takou dost tvrdou hlupostou. Ja napr zaliate nemam takze po spojeni a aplikovani tohoto patchu by si relativne SLI mal rozbehat...

NVIDIA disable ULi's SLI patch

SLI patch was probably the last secret weapon of ULi before it got acquired by NVIDIA earlier this year. It is now confirmed that the SLI patch function on the Uli 1697 will no longer work with Forceware 81.98 and later.

This came as a rude shock to users as NVIDIA acquired ULI and most would expect NV to continue to support ULI and allow it to penetrate the entry level SLI market. Apparently, NVIDIA isn't too happy about the SLI patch and terminated it. Forceware 81.98 and later has a new code that will detect the SLI patch and disable two cards to run in SLI mode. Forceware 81.98 will still work in SLI with ULi 1697 boards.

...nVidia zaslala tvorcom "SLI patche-u" z NGOHQ.com ziadost o zastavenia distribuovania uvedeneho patche-u na ich strankach

...cely clanok: Nvidia threatens NGOHQ over SLI Patch

...o tomto kroku nVidie sa okrem threadu v diskusnom fore priamo na NGOHQ.com zacali diskusie aj na dalsich weboch - napr. techpowerup.com a pcper.com
