Description:

Guillemot's 3D Prophet DDR-DVI graphics board, with its patented GeForce 256 DDR architecture, accelerates complex animations in 3-D games. Shadows, lighting, and realistic, defined characters enhance gameplay. Cube environment mapping, vertex blending, and projective textures are supported as well.

The 256-bit GeForce 256, nVidia's graphics processing unit, is incorporated in the Guillemot Prophet's four-pixel-per-clock architecture. Optimized for double-data-rate memory and generating up to 15 million triangles per second, the GeForce 256 supports 480 million texture-mapped pixels per second, 256-bit quad-pipeline processing, and 32 MB DDR RAM. DDR RAM is a memory type that boosts the speed of graphics operations and helps achieve higher bandwidth. It offers a bandwidth of 4.47 GBps and two data transfers per clock instead of one. Textures are loaded and mapped faster, and the overall architecture of the GeForce 256 is increased.

The 3D Prophet DDR-DVI also maximizes the potential of your monitor. The Digital Visual Interface, which is supported by all major computer manufacturers, provides higher digital output for games and DVD video. With a resolution of up to 1,600 by 1,200 and a 16 million-color palette, DDR-DVI offers sharpness for true 32-bit color gaming and instant monitor compatibility without driver issues.

The 3D Prophet also is a hardware accelerator for DVD video playback. A TV/video output is provided for playing DVD titles or games on your TV. The package contains a user manual and CD-ROM with all drivers, plus online documentation and playable demos.

Guillemot provides a three-year limited warranty on labor and parts.
