Jetway 775GT4-SLI

Three Premium nForce4 Motherboards from Gigabyte, Jetway, and MSI
By

Board-Revision: 0.1


BIOS version: unknown

Three slots for PCI Express graphics? That's right! But those who already own SLI systems can safely exhale, as that doesn't mean you can use all three: two graphics card remain standard for SLI, and Jetway can't do much to change that. You populate either the single yellow x16 slot or the two green X16 slots; only in the latter case will SLI Dual Graphics work.

Jetway is pursuing system upgraders, because it outdoes both Gigabyte and MSI with three slots for 32-bit PCI cards. That said, you have to ask yourself which of the other expansion bus slots you really need to populate on this motherboard, in light of the large complement of built-in components. An ever-increasing number of USB-based external components are also available, further reducing the need for internal expansion space.

The red 775GT4-SLI Jetway motherboard is also equipped with two Gigabit Ethernet controllers - one from NVIDIA, and another from Marvell. But only the first of these includes an integrated hardware firewall with stateful packet inspection (ActiveArmor). Because the nForce4 chipset lacks Firewire support, you'll also find a VIA controller for 1394a (400 Mbps) included on this colorful board.
