  • New PowerVR Drivers & Demos

    It's been a long time, but PowerVR have regurgitated some new Drivers for its hungry offspring - Kyro Graphics card, bringing them up to version 2.1 (Build 2.01.21.0007. No word on what's new, though they can be found here:

    - PowerVR Series3 (KYRO/KYRO II) (Windows XP) v 2.1
    - PowerVR Series3 (KYRO/KYRO II) (Windows 2000) v 2.1
    - PowerVR Series3 (KYRO/KYRO II) (Windows 9X/ME) v 2.1

    More interesting is that they've posted DirectX 9 - Pixel & Vertex Shader 3.0 supporting demos. An indication their new Graphics card is almost ready?

        The m3D must have been one of the bigest fiascos for Matrox... But I don't think we can call it a GPU...

          And don't forget about the Linux drivers. They have also been updated to version 2.1.
          Live long and prosper!

              I used a m3D together with my old Matrox Millennium. As far as I can remember I always used the refferance drivers from PowerVR, I also remeber that I was satisfied with the PowerVR card, only used to for like six mounths, then I changed to two Voodoo2 card in SLI
