How much of a performance increase will I see with SLI technology?

FAQ
The amount of performance improvement will depend on the application and its ability to scale. Several of today's hottest games see a full 2X increase in performance when using SLI with two GPUs. In general, applications running at higher resolutions with higher image quality settings will benefit most.

What applications are supported with SLI Technology?

FAQ
SLI can be enabled for every gaming application, including both OpenGL and Direct3D gaming applications. SLI provides either 3D performance scaling using Alternate Frame Rendering (AFR) or Split-Frame Rendering (SFR) or increased visual quality using the SLI Antialiasing mode. In order to provide the optimal 'out-of-box' experience for its customers, NVIDIA has created an extensive set of optimized game profiles which enable SLI automatically.

How does Data Safe Technology increase performance and safety of your system?

Systweak-Memory Zipper Plus
Windows uses system cache which normally improves the speed of accessing files. System cache is part of physical memory. The purpose of cache is to store files temporarily to improve performance. When a file is read from hard disk it is stored in system cache. If there is another read request for the same file, Windows retrieves it from the faster system cache memory, instead of reading it from the slower hard disk.

Is there anything I can do to increase performance?

Coin3D/Mac FAQ — www.coin3d.org
Yes. There are two things that you should consider when you want to increase the performance of your application. First, take a look at your scene graph. Remove empty (unused) nodes. Keep in mind that OpenGL state changes are expensive, so position objects in a way that they can share textures and materials whenever possible. Try to optimize your scene graph for render caching. And so on... This is not Mac-specific advice, but I'm repeating it here since it's so important.

Why am I getting crappy performance on my SLI card?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Crysis currently doesn't support SLI technology. While it might run, and run well... it wont maximize the potential of the card until the patch comes out or a later fix/update. Here is a thread discussion a benchmark testing on triple SLI cards. Keep in mind it's not supported: SLI Benchmark

I have SLI/Crossfire, does the overall performance estimate reflect this?

YouGamers - About Us - Game-o-Meter FAQ
The performance estimation model is equipped to handle SLI and Crossfire. If there's no increase in your performance with SLI enabled, it might be because we don't have enough benchmarking data from your hardware combination with SLI. Again, you can help by running 3DMark06 and submitting your results.

Which would have better performance, 1 AGP card or 2 PCI cards (with SLI)?

dfxzone.it - 3dfx Channel -> Voodoo2 -> FAQ
This depends upon the application's bottlenecks. If the application is bus limited, AGP may be faster than SLI. If the application is fill rate limited and not CPU bound, SLI may be faster. In general SLI will have better performance than AGP in fill rate.

Is this GXM compatible with NVIDIA's SLI technology?

Panoram Technologies
The GXM solution is ideal for SLI. Imagine harnessing the power of QUAD SLI in dual PCIe slots and spreading that graphics performance over a 3840 X 1024 work (or play) space with a PV720 FRM. This provides a totally new paradigm of performance, resolution and real-estate for desktop computing.

Do graphics cards that have 2 GeForce GPUs on one card use SLI Technology?

FAQ
Yes. There are graphics cards on the market today that have designed NVIDIA SLI Technology into one graphics card. Gigabyte's 3D1 is the first dual GPU graphics card to become SLI-Ready Certified. However, this card is ONLY compatible with Gigabyte's SLI-Ready motherboards. Always check the SLI-Ready Certification list before making a purchasing decision.

How does this technology differ from 3dfx's SLI?

FAQ
NVIDIA SLI differs in many ways. First, 3dfx SLI was implemented on a shared bus using PCI. The PCI bus delivered ~100MB/sec. of bus throughput, while PCI Express is a point-to-point interface that can deliver ~60x the total bandwidth of PCI. Second, 3dfx SLI performed interleaving of scan lines, and combined in the analog domain, which could result in image quality issues due to DAC differences and other factors.

Will an aftermarket "air foil" increase performance?

Impala SS Frequently Asked Questions List
Maybe, but not nearly as much as they advertise. At their absolute best, expect to see about 5HP gain, but possibly none. It's one of the "it can't hurt" mods: it may get you that extra .05 that you're looking for. There are really no ill effects, other than the $50 that you'll be losing from your wallet. It's purpose is to smooth and direct the air into the throttle body, which presents a flat face to the incoming air.
Related Questions

What else can be done to increase air flow and thus performance?

Page not found - ThirdGen.org
You can put on a larger throttle body size along with the addition of an air foil to smooth the flow of the air. 1 5/8" headers will probably provide one of the largest increases in power. Then there's also CNC (computer numerical control) porting of the heads which can be done, although that can get quite expensive, it's quite "THE" air-flow tweak.
Related Questions

Do ceramic coatings increase performance?

faq
Definitely. Because hot air travels to cold air very quickly, a higher exhaust gas velocity and a smoother flow is achieved, and the cylinder is left cleaner for the next intake stroke, increasing engine performance.
Related Questions

How can I increase the "full screen control" performance?

PC Remote Control Software
We recommend you using Windows95/98 or Windows ME to run remote control server. You will get a lower performance when using Windows2000/NT, because Windows2000/NT is base on Client/Server structure. At the same time, Lower screen resolutions can also improve performance. Unless you are using a very fast network connection, we do not recommend using high resolutions.

Will removing the resonators increase performance?

rd Generation Eclipse FAQ
No. The resonators present on the GT do not restrict exhaust flow. They just reduce the volume of the exhaust. They can be replaced with a straight pipe without any adverse effects to increase the exhaust volume if desired.

How can I increase performance on this chip?

Pericom - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) - By Product Fam...
Normally, most motherboards set the Cache Line Size of the motherboard primary PCI bus (i.e. system North Bridge) to 8, with some of the newer ones choosing 16. At boot time, the system BIOS copies this value to our bridge CLS register. The number is small where little bursting is expected; but smaller burst lengths decrease available PCI bandwidth. The tradeoff is that small bursts have smaller latency, that is, less impact on other devices waiting to use the PCI bus.

How can I increase the battery life and its performance?

FAQ
Never leave your battery in its charger for more than 24 hours. Doing so will shorten the life of your battery. Break in your new batteries. The best way to do this is by fully charging and discharging your new battery several times in order to reach its maximum capacity. Keep your batteries clean. Clean dirty batteries with a cotton swab and alcohol. A clean battery will ensure a good connection between your battery and its device.
