NVIDIA nForce4 SLI XE: Enthusiast Features on a Budget

Gaming Performance

The overall gaming performance of the ECS C19-A SLI is very competitive when compared to our recent Intel based test results. The ECS board remained very stable in our game benchmark testing and during extended game-play testing over the course of several continuous hours. While the ECS board is not a leader, it offers a great performance to price ratio for those on budget.


SLI Performance

The performance of the ECS C19-A SLI was surprising in our SLI testing against the Asus P5N32-SLI. Its ability to remain competitively close in the benchmarks while placing first in the GPU intensive Call of Duty II test was impressive. We certainly believe NVIDIA's continual improvements in their chipset designs accounted for the excellent performance of the ECS board.
