Intel gets a desktop SLI licence from Nvidia
AND THE BIGGEST story of the show so far is: Intel has landed an SLI licence for desktop, not just mobile.
You don't believe us? Look at the tag on the picture below. The deal was confirmed multiple times by the vendor and others.
Below the tagged shot is a full board one with most identifying things blanked out to save the vendor's blushes.
We wondered previously what Intel got from Nvidia in exchange for the tie-up that put more Nvidia chips on Intel boards. Now we know.
We can't say we're surprised though. In return for a CSI licence and a dual-socket chipset licence, however, we reckon Intel overpaid.
