The onboard 3D RAGE LT PRO is a highly integrated Multimedia/3D
Graphics Controller that has the following unique features:
• TV-Out
An integrated TV encoder with on-chip triple-DAC allows
simultaneous CRT/LCD/TV output.
• Dual CRT Controller Support
Two independent CRT controllers support two asynchronous
simultaneous displays (LCD/CRT, CRT/TV).
• Floating-Point Set-up Engine
The 3D RAGE LT PRO integrates a floating-point se-up engine
capable of processing up to 1.2 million triangles per second.
By off-loading the set-up function from the CPU, allowing it to
focus on 3D geometry and lighting transformations, the 3D
RAGE LT PRO dramatically improves the performance of the
entire 3D pipeline.
• DVD and Video Support
DVD and video
compensation acceleration and a 4-tap horizontal and 2-tap
vertical high quality DVD video scaler, providing smooth
images without the "jaggies" (jagged edges) common to
today's video products. The scaler provides true color video
display, independent of the graphics mode used.
• AGP 2X mode
The DVD enabled 3D RAGE LT PRO AGP 2X support the
AGP 2X (133MHz) mode that offers a peak bandwidth in
excess of 500MB/s. It supports AGP's pipeline and sideband
protocols critical to the enhanced 3D and video performance.
• Panel Link Support (option)
The optional panel link connector supports new compact LCD
(Liquid Crystal Display) monitors that not only emit less
radiation and consume less power but take less space.
