Hybrid SLI Technology
Hybrid SLI™ Technology is a unique hybrid multi-GPU technology. It includes
two primary features: GeForce Boost and HybridPower™. GeForce Boost
turbo-charges performance of discrete graphics cards when combined with M3N
series motherboard GPUs. HybridPower™ unleashes graphics performance
for demanding 3D applications and enables low-power operation for everyday
computing needs. You can switch from the discrete GeForce GPU(s) to the
motherboard GPU for a quiet, low power PC experience. See page 2-20 and
Chapter 5 for details.
Geforce Boost and HybridPower™ are independent on select GeForce GPUs.
