- 183 MHz & 166MHz. Core Clock (potentially higher)
- First chip to support up to 128MB of double-data rate (DDR) memory at
200MHz. (Shipping at 183MHz. & 166MHz.)
- Scalable Core Architecture Supporting ATI's "MAXX" Multiple
ASIC Technology
- Hardware T&L Support
- Full Scene Order Independent Anti-Aliasing via 4X Super Sampling
- ATI's Charisma Engine, which incorporates a 30 million triangle per
second geometry engine as well as radical new 3D character animation
techniques.
- Single chip break through of the Gigatexel barrier with an awesome 1.5
Gigatexel per second rendering engine.
- First with hardware support for 3D shadows.
- First with all DX7 bump mapping effects (emboss, dot product 3 and
EMBM).
- First with advanced DX8 pixel shader effects.
- First with 3D texture support for new volumetric effects.
- First PC graphics chip to include an on-chip hardware HDTV decoder.
- High quality video filters capable of operating at full HDTV
resolutions.
- On-chip HDTV decoder which eliminates the requirement for separate HDTV
decoder cards which add cost and reduce picture quality.
- On-chip HDTV display interface for new HDTV displays.
- On-chip transport stream interface to connect directly to HDTV tuner
boards.
- Improved DVD Playback support
- Patent pending adaptive de-interlacing algorithms, which result in
unparalleled video quality for interlaced TV and HDTV video streams.
