The Return of S3

Posted by michael on from the not-dead-yet dept.

flynn_nrg writes "Just saw this article on ExtremeTech about S3's new graphics card. S3 is back on the scene with its first new GPU architecture in five years. Rather than take aim at the high-end, S3 has set its sights on the midrange price/performance category, which is currently dominated by ATI's Radeon 9600 XT and nVidia's GeForce FX 5700, both of which are under $200. Today S3 unveils the DeltaChrome S8 GPU, which represents the midrange of its upcoming line of DeltaChrome GPUs."

  3. No S3 texture compression? by tepples · · Score: 0, Troll

    From the article: "One feature not on this list is compression of texture, color and Z data." I thought S3 invented S3 texture compression.

    OMW why didn't I think of that? :-P America would never do that because at its core it is (classical) liberal.

    There is no fucking difference at all between a fundamentalist muslim, a fundamentalist christian and a fundamentalist jew. Christians are just a special kind of jew, and muslims are just a special kind of christian. They all belong on the top of a fucking massive bonfire. However many gods there may be, the answer is certainly either fewer than one or more than one. By all means bash monotheists, but don't differentiate between them. All monotheists are pure and simple evil.
