Aginward let's check the quality We begin by having a look at the texture filtering quality of these boards when using trilinear filtering:. And from a developers viewpoint the FX series must be heaven sent. Between these two combatants, however, rides SiS, banner held high and Xabre in hand.
SiS's Xabre 400 graphics processor
The problem of such a weak support of pixel shaders probably results from errors in the chip or drivers. Here we see how much we can overclock the card without suffering from artefacts, and then measure the performance against the default results. With the current crop of videocards using larger and larger PCB's, and drawing more power then ever before it was very refreshing to see the relative small size and simplicity of the ECS AG Each element is isolated from the silver, which eliminates electrical problems.
This overclocking is endorsed by Gainward and does not void your warranty. Besides, the rendering quality MIP-mapping is unacceptable at all.
ATI vs. nVidia vs SiS? [Archive] - Overclockers Forums
For the tests we used SIS drivers 3. Basically because MMC offers a unified media center just as the name implies.
The settings are quite scarce and they are connected mainly with information on the card and dualhead support: I just wanted to inform you about that mistake.
However, it's impossible to do this thing with the WinDVD because the player knows well the border between the monitors and you will see just a black window instead of a movie. Fillrate is of the essence here.
At least, they are not mentioned, and the test results show that they are absent. Comanche4 Benchmark No comments.
Quality in other tests and games won't be examined today because soon we will publish next 3Digest with a lot of screenshots from many games and comments on quality of the Xabre. Nvidia and ATI control high-end desktop video through a best-of-breed mix of speed and features.
Below is a summary table of key technical characteristics of the tested chips and cards: All cards but two are built on nVidias FX chip, that is "non-Ultra". The golden orb-like fan looks pretty sweet though. Since this review mainly deals with low budget boards I decided on skipping a lot of the high quality tests simply because none of the boards can provide playable framerates using such settings.

First of all, it is useful for movie lovers as they can run the a player on the second monitor. Today's games don't lay down that many gainwwrd per pass, but future titles using more complex shader programs will. Screening of the printed-circuit board to protect from pickups; Heat reduction, as the whole card acts as a radiator. The second 8 in 8x8 stands for DirectX 8.
I had a buddy with one of thier cards and his fps were pretty sorry, even though it looked good. With all the new advanced graphics cards, we should be seeing some competition like in the 90s. For estimation of 3D performance we used: It seems to me that the heatsink is rather a decorative feature. Game4 Now it's clear that the Xabre shows moderate results in complex tasks which use shaders, contain a lot of effects and very complex scenes.
It's the chip's DirectX 8. I kinda wish I'd waited and got one of these, but that's just coz I want to be different:
