simFUSION 6000q - Multichip Radeon 9700

Für die nötige Grafikleistung sorgen entweder zwei oder gleich vier Radeon 9700-Chipsm die eine Füllrate von 9,6 Gigapixel/s erreichen. Sie sind mit 256 MByte Speicher und drei DVI-Ausgängen ausgestattet. Um die Prozessorleistung der Workstation kümmert sich ein oder zwei Intel Xeon-Prozessoren mit 2,4 GHz. Ihnen stehen bis zu 2 GByte Speicher beiseite. Pressemitteilung E&S to Debut simFUSION 6000 at I/ITSEC Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation (E&S®) (NASDAQ: ESCC) will demonstrate its newest PC-based image generator, simFUSION® 6000, at I/ITSEC 2002. Based on the award-winning ATI RadeonTM 9700 GPU, simFUSION 6000 delivers best-in-class performance as well as simulation features available for the first time at this price point. Using the second-generation E&S simENGINETM graphics board, simFUSION 6000 is the first PC-IG to combine multiple ATI Radeon 9700 graphics chips on a single card. Key features include: Exceptional fill rates enabled by a 256-bit wide unified memory interface and integrated multi-chip supertiling Outstanding image quality as a result of best-in-class multisample antialiasing combined with 16x anisotropic texturing, floating-point graphics pipelines, and gamma-in/gamma-out Full-speed, 16-bit monochrome mode for accurate sensor simulation Three DVI-I outputs per chassis in the quad-chip configuration for cost-effective three-channel, low-end image generator applications Multiple chassis solutions via dual-link DVI inputs and outputs for ultra-high-end applications "With the introduction of simFUSION 6000, E&S offers the best PC-IG graphics acceleration technology backed by the most extensive visual simulation expertise in the industry," said Nick Gibbs, E&S Simulation Systems vice president and general manager. "Our close working relationship with ATI allows us to take advantage of all the advanced features of the Radeon 9700, while we add significant key discriminators for advanced simulation applications. Our first customer deliveries will occur in the first quarter of 2003."
