I am trying to find more information about this as we speak - but I will be very surprised if SLI just works with plain vanilla 9xx series chipsets that come straight from AMD. Thanks for adding the techreport link.

Why would you be surprised? After all, SLI works with plain vanilla X58 chipsets straight from Intel now. Getting SLI certified requires validation from NVidia but as far as I know thats just a matter of PCB design, not extra components.

  When Nvidia announced this for Intel Anandtech used the headline - "Hell Freezes Over: NVIDIA Announces Native SLI Support for the Intel X58 Chipset". So perhaps Nvidia not insisting on things like the NF200 chip is surprising?
