The Asus P5N32-SLI Premium motherboard allows us to run two GeForce 7800GTXs in SLI - the performance boost from that is definitely noticeable. With one videocard, performance is still very good, and the Asus motherboard outperforms the rest of the crowd in the overall portion of this benchmark.

Here in 3DMark06, results are very good and we see that SLI does improve performance slightly. The CPU score stays about the same even with SLI enabled because as the name indicates, it's a CPU based test.
