ECS PN1 SLI2 Extreme nForce 590SLI Motherboard Review

April 10th 2007 | nForce 500

The ECS PN1 SLI2 Extreme motherboard is a prime example of what ECS has done right. Based on the nVIDIA nForce 590 SLI Intel Edition chipset, the motherboard sports a whole load of integrated goodies like six Serial ATA II channels (with RAID support), 7.1 channel High Definition audio, dual Gigabit network cards ten USB 2.0 slots, two IEEE 1394a and one IEEE 1394b slots. Everything you’ll need to take advantage of all the integrated goodies comes, which is a nice change from a lot of other boards that lack most of the ‘optional’ brackets to take full advantage of the feature set.

..On the whole, PCSTATS found the ECS PN1 SLI2 Extreme motherboard to be a good well rounded platform that performed well, and certainly came with a lot of goodies. The biggest issue with this board will be finding it…. It’s been rumored that ECS has already discontinued production of the PN1 SLI2 Extreme. Too bad, it’s a pretty good option for Intel users on a budget.
