Triplex announces videocards based on SiS' Xabre
I got a press release on my mailbox this morning from Triplex, a taiwanesse videocard and soundcard manufacturer (never heard of them before) which will be one of the first manufacturers to support SiS upcoming chips. They sent some information and graphs along with the PR, the chip will directly compete with NVIDIA's MX videocards so expect a price lower than $100... the chips are capable of running DirectX 8 applications though...
The new Triplex Xabre range consists of four chips, the Xabre 80, Xabre 200, Xabre 400 and Xabre 800 which correspond to the SiS 328, SiS 332, SiS 334 and SiS 336 respectively. All four render across four pipelines and 8 texels, double the performance of comparable nVIDIA GeForce products. Three of the four models in the Xabre series are also the world¡¦s first to support AGP 8X. And unlike nVIDIA¡¦s GeForce 4 MX and ATI¡¦s Radeon GPUs, the Xabre series boasts a hardware pixel shader and environment bump mapping
