Oh, I just finally realized this isn't a Nvidia thing, it's Intel, My
mothergboard is Nvidia 680 based, so I'd assumed, but you know the stopy
about assume, right? Well, I fihnally ran down a couple of big pdfs
from Intel on this, and I have my reading time all set for myself.
Now, all I need is to find the same stuff out about ... oh, not again,
this time zi google a bit longer first.
