Even if the company sells less than 10000 Parhelia-512 cards. The announce of this unique chip alone can draw the fixed attention.


That's us!! Just like the AmigaOne/OS4.0! Even if less than 10000 are sold, the hype alone will start a snowball effect! Matrox and Amiga. back for the future!

Someone has to state the obvious and that someone is me!

That's a bit misleading and an oversimplification. The simplest way to explain what is wrong with that statement is encapsulated in one word: Amithlon.


That's probably not true.

Remember the old Geforce-II Ultra benckmarks? A 700Mhz P3 gave nearly identical FPS in all test against a 1.6Ghz P4.

And *YES* I would rather have a faster CPU than 600Mhz. 1Ghz would have been a better starting point, bit I can live with 600Mhz as a start!
