ZOTAC Announces NVIDIA SLI platform nForce 750a Motherboard

HONG KONG - Mar. 25, 2008 - ZOTAC International, a leading award-winning NVIDIA AIC, today announced a new high-performance motherboard designed for value-minded gamers and enthusiasts - the ZOTAC nForce 750a. The new ZOTAC nForce 750a combines the high-performance of AMD Phenom, Athlon and Sempron processors with NVIDIA SLI technology for a performance shattering combination.

Powered by NVIDIA's latest nForce 750a SLI media communications processor, the ZOTAC nForce 750a packs new features such as NVIDIA Hybrid SLI technology and the ability unlock the full performance potential of AMD Socket AM2+ Phenom, Athlon and Sempron processors.

New NVIDIA Hybrid SLI technology pairs the power of discrete graphics cards, such as the latest ZOTAC GeForce 9 series and GeForce 8 series products, with the performance and low power consumption of the integrated graphics core for enhanced performance using GeForce Boost and HybridPower technologies.

NVIDIA GeForce Boost technology enhances the performance of the onboard graphics core when a discrete graphics card is installed by utilizing NVIDIA SLI technology. When a ZOTAC Hybrid SLI compatible graphics card is installed in the ZOTAC nForce 750a motherboard, GeForce Boost technology uses the new graphics card as a supercharger to boost the performance of the onboard graphics so users gain an additional performance advantage for added performance value.

NVIDIA HybridPower technology ensures the system consumes as little power as possible by powering down any discrete graphics when the additional 3D rendering power is unneeded. When the additional graphics power is required for performance intensive tasks such as gaming, the system seamlessly powers the graphics card back on for a smooth experience.

"NVIDIA Hybrid SLI technology is the future of high-performance platforms," said Carsten Berger, marketing director, ZOTAC International (MCO) Ltd. "The technology allows our customers to have extreme flexibility with graphics performance when building new systems."

The ZOTAC nForce 750a unlocks the full potential of AMD Phenom, Athlon and Sempron processors by offering full compatibility with AMD's Socket AM2+ platform. The ZOTAC nForce 750a delivers the full performance of AMD's HyperTransport 3.0 bus, a feat unavailable on previous generation motherboards

HyperTransport 3.0 increases the available bandwidth between the motherboard and CPU for speedier transfers and performance.

Unleash the high-performance and power of AMD processors and ZOTAC GeForce graphics cards with the high-value ZOTAC nForce750a.

"We aim to deliver the most performance-per-buck with the ZOTAC nForce 750a for AMD users," Mr. Berger added. "The ZOTAC nForce 750a is a no-compromise motherboard for users looking for a motherboard packed full of features with a budget price."
