"According to a story on the Tech Report, Nvidia has agreed to enable SLI on Intel's X58 chipset without the need of the Nforce 200 chipset which has been a major bugaboo with many of the motherboard manufacturers.
This is very good news, indeed, and we're not quite sure why Nvidia has come to its senses, but it seems to have something to do with not having its own QPI chipset. There's a small caveat though, as any motherboard manufacturer that wants to get SLI support on its motherboards has to send samples to Nvidia's HQ in Santa Clara to get them tested and verified, which we're sure Nvidia will be charging something or the other for."
