Matrox mga g200 Graphics Cards

Millennium G200 is Matrox's most powerful graphics card for professional business graphics. This AGP 2X uses 8MB SGRAM and the new MGA-G200 64-bit DualBus graphics chip to provide advanced 2D, 3D and video acceleration. It can be upgraded to 16MB SGRAM. This graphics card supports AGP level 2X, which includes direct memory execute mode and sidebands. A sideband is an additional data path to the system memory apart from the main bus. Sidebanding lets the graphics processor line up new data requests as the main bus continues to gather data. Direct memory execute goes straight to the system memory for textures and pulls them directly into the graphics processor. These two technologies increase the AGP bandwidth and speed up data transfers. Millennium G200's hardware-accelerated 24-bit color produces photo-realistic images to view or edit graphics, documents, Web pages and designs at ultra-high resolutions without PC-slowdown. Millennium G200 brings entry-level workstation performance to the PC with its high-level, high-speed performance. It uses 32-bit vibrant color quality rendering architecture and an advanced setup engine to support all 3D special effects. It accelerates Direct3D and OpenGL applications with advanced alpha-blending, bi-linear filtering, tri-linear mipmapping, fogging, anti-aliasing and specular highlights. Its advanced setup engine processes over 1.5 million triangles per second and can process full-featured Direct3D and OpenGL polygons with high frame rates. Millennium G200 provides software MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 video acceleration to playback multimedia CD-ROM and DVD titles at full-screen, full-motion. It is fitted with both a front and back-end scaler for high image quality. It also will accept the upcoming Matrox G-series hardware DVD accelerator for the highest quality DVD playback. IBM backs the Millennium G200 with a year parts warranty.

STB is the technology leader in Multi-port graphics. Internationally STB has received more than 20 performance awards on our graphics and Multimedia accelerators. STB has invented and continues refinement on the four most important Multi-port technologies.STB Systems, Inc., the global leader in Multi-monitor solutions for over ten years, introduces the MVP Workstation. The MVP Workstation provides Multi-monitor workstation performance to the PC platform by maximizing the strengths of Windows NT 4.0. MVP Workstation is designed to drive multiple displays simultaneously with the ability to display different information on each display. Specialized drivers known as the STB Virtual Desktop are provided that allow users to operate with seamless mouse operations from one display to the next. Users may click and drag windows or applications from one screen to the next or expand an application window across the entire Virtual Desktop. Physical displays may be arranged in vertical, horizontal, or cubed configurations. The MVP Workstation uses the enhanced 2D and 3D performance of S3's 64-bit graphics engine ViRGE/DX. The MVP Workstation is equipped with 4MB per port for a total of up to 16MB of high speed EDO DRAM for maximum performance and resolution capabilities.
