Foxconn X38A supports BOTH SLI and CrossFire

Someone had to do it, release a motherboard that supports NVIDIA's SLI and AMD's CrossFire... Well Foxconn have!

Read about it here

Very interesting, but I wonder how Foxconn are going to get around Nvidia's clause that their SLI logo's can't be used on the same products as ATI.

whats with this multi colored business,it looks almost as bad as that gigabyte board.

if you gonna make something that has some nice features etc dont make it look like you left the color design to someone who is color blind

i also await what nvidia say,although if its come this far then it must have the go ahead from nvidia already?

It doesn't say SLI anywhere.

It does say CrossFire, but just "NVIDIA multi-GPU configurations".

Totally agreed on the color, z0mg horrible. They used like 9 different colors, all of which are gross. Argh! Please, please, please stick with a color scheme people! Black & red.... black, white & red.... black & blue... black white & blue... red & white.... come on, get with the program!!

I'm a big fan of the old DFI Black and Gold look, but black PCB FTW 99% of the time tbh

Oh yeah missed that, DFI black & yellow ftw too. You know what would look cool (IMO)? Black + neon green

Most deff. That would rock. I have to agree the mobo looks like someone ate a bag of Haribo and puked it back up, stuck in some sata ports, pci-e slots and called it a mobo lol

@ Mr. Popo - granted it doesn't say SLI - but the slide states 'nvidia dual graphics' which is essentially SLI. Perhaps they haven't worked out how they are getting around the clause which Jim pointed out in his post
