MODEL- 100-505086 VENDOR- A T I FEATURES- FireGL V5100 (Visualization Series)- Retail Package The FireGL Visualization series of workstation graphics accelerators is designed specifically for the new, high-bandwidth PCI Express bus, and is architected to deliver unprecedented speed and image quality for real-time visualization. True cinematic quality rendering of complex geometry is now available for compelling animation, visual effects, mechanical design and leading-edge business communication. The bridgeless, single-chip design of the FireGL native PCI Express graphics processor fully engages all of the benefits of this interconnect standard in the safest, most cost effective, and most reliable transition from AGP. Unlike other bridged PCI Express implementations, ATIs FireGL PCI Express products deliver full bandwidth in both upstream and downstream directions, doubling the capabilities of previous products. ATIs FireGL cards -- whether PCI Express x16 lane or AGP 8X -- are designed to accelerate 3D workstation applications based on OpenGL and Microsoft DirectX 9.0. With full certification on the leading computer aided design (CAD), architecture/engineering/construction (AEC) and digital content creation (DCC) applications, FireGL is the high performance choice for graphics professionals working in Windows or Linux based systems. * Hardware acceleration of the following: - Anti-aliased points and lines or full scene anti-aliasing (2X, 4X, 6X) - 3D lines and triangles - Stipple points - Two-sided lighting - Up to 8 light sources - Directional and local lighting - OpenGL overlay planes - Occlusion culling - 6 user defined clip planes - OpenGL polymode functions - 32-bit (24+8-bit stencil) Z Buffer - Fast Z and color clears - Full DX9 vertex shader support with 4 vertex units - Quad-buffer stereo support 3 * SMARTSHADER Technology - Programmable pixel and vertex shaders - 16 textures per pass - Pixel shaders up to 160 instructions with 32-bit floating point precision for each RGBA component. - Multiple render target support - Shadow volume rendering acceleration - High precision 10-bit per channel frame buffer support * SMOOTHVISION Technology - 2X/4X/6X anti-aliasing modes - High performance adaptive algorithm with programmable sample patterns. - 2X/4X/8X/16X anisotropic filtering modes - Adaptive algorithm with bi-linear (performance) and tri-linear (quality) options. * HYPER Z Technology - 3-level Hierarchical Z-Buffer with early Z test - Lossless Z-Buffer compression (up to 24:1) - Fast Z-Buffer Clear -- SPECIFICATIONs ----------------------------------- INTERFACE/BUS- PCI Express x16 MEMORY - 128 MB, 256-bit 22.4 GB/sec.
