The ECS AG315T AGP Video Card integrates the SiS315 4X/2X AGP chipset with full side-band and pipeline support, a 256-bit 3D/2D graphics engine and a motion compensation MPEG1/MPEG2 accelerator (to provide smooth DVD playback)! This card offers a complete 64/128-bit SDR memory data bus. It can achieve ultra high 2D performance with maximum memory bandwidth up to 5.2GB/s. An optimized 3D pipeline architecture is implemented for eliminating the overhead resulted from texture read, Z-buffer read/write and destination read latencies! The AG315T also is accompanied with a built in SiS301 chip that integrates a NTSC/PAL video encoder for TV out. This card is packed into a very good looking retail box!!
