EVGA released today the latest EVGA-designed addition to its line of high-performance 3-Way-SLI-ready mother-boards, the EVGA nForce 790i SLI FTW DIGITAL.

Engineered For The Win, early samples of this motherboard already set 4 new performance world records at NVIDIA?s NVISION in late August 2008 in San Jose, California. Featuring an EVGA enthusiast BIOS for extended range voltage settings, 100% solid state capacitors, 100% ferrite core chokes and an advanced 8 phase digital PWM (pulse width modu-lation) power supply solution the EVGA nForce 790i SLI FTW DIGITAL runs stable in extreme over-clocking environments.

The new 790i SLI FTW Digital PWM, on the other hand, has improved voltage stability, voltage efficiency and should bring improved overclockability, thanks to the new digital PWM. If you are wondering how good this motherboard really is, just bear in mind that this is the motherboard which broke P30k in 3DMark Vantage, and is currently the fastest system at Futuremark's ORB

The design supports 2000+ MHz dual channel DDR3 system memory and 1600+ MHz front side bus. Available on October 1, 2008, the EVGA nForce 790i SLI FTW DIGITAL motherboard combines ultimate over-clocking performance and next gen-eration NVIDIA three-way-SLI-2, including NVIDIA PhysX, at a recommended retail price of €349 in the states of the European Community.
