Inno3D nForce 680i SLI Motherboard Review

Inno3D’s nForce 680i SLI mobo is designed for gamers looking to run SLI in conjunction with one of Intel’s Core 2 processors and is based around NVIDIA’s nForce 680i SLI reference motherboard.

Innovision is renowned in the graphics card business for its association with NVIDIA, so building a motherboard to complement the graphics cards it sells seems like a wise idea. The company doesn’t mess around with fancy product names, merely putting its name to the reference board design.

..Ultimately it’s a kick ass bit of kit, and it’s much cheaper than the similar-performing Striker Extreme from Asus. Also, despite being a reference design, we’ve had no issues with our nemesis this time around. The layout is solid and Inno3D has included the bare essentials in the bundle. However, we feel that Inno3D needs to differentiate itself more in a highly competitive market. It needs offer something other than a subtle saving to sway customers to its brand, in order to make an impact in a market where brand loyalty is high.
