Asus A8N-SLI Premium Allows SLI to be Enabled in Software

Asus' Soft-SLI

Here is what Asus changed: these chips enable software SLI switching.

The user can choose from SLI, dual or auto switch modes in the BIOS. Dual mode will enable both graphics cards without running them in SLI mode (dual graphics only).

The Overclock Profile in the sub menu 'Jumper Free' needs to be set to Auto.
