Page 34: Pinout And Sync Frequencies
Software 3D is generally used to mean using non-specific (2D) hardware in conjunction with the CPU to render for 3D applications. Some of these techniques allow usable 3D applications when high- powered and/or MMX™-equipped CPU's are employed along with special-case software optimization techniques. As stated above, SW 3D can achieve credible results with today's (software optimized) applications, but the rising popularity of good 3D hardware at the consumer price level is inexorably compelling the public to expect... -
