Smoothvision II? Would this basically be Smoothvision I, but working?
"..so much for subtlety.."

The R200 could already do 6xFSAA, it looked great, but it was unplayable for the most games if you used higher resolutions than 640x480, even with the "performance" setting.Originally posted by thop

I am wondering if they have improved Smoothvision, ATIs FSAA has always been behind nVidias performance wise, ATI offered better quality though.Specs:

Isn't anybody going to bitch about the size of the fan? Oh, wait, it's not a Parhelia, so that's okay.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.Comment

shoot that thing is HUGE... I'd bet it's double the size of the HS/fan setup that a Parhelia needs"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind." -- Dr. Seuss

Why is it called tourist season, if we can't shoot at them?Comment

Overall I don't understand why they keep putting small, just about adequate fans on cards. If you put a large fan, the chip runs cooler, less people will damage their cards by trying to exchange the fan into something more exotic, and a larger fan is more silent as well. The cost can't be that much bigger, can it?Comment

Yep,it's got to fit in the slot. Also, bigger fans would require pulling more power from the socket.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.Comment

By those comments you guys think that Matrox builds their cards to provide and much cooling as possible when OCing?
Polease!
