RETIRO OQUE DISSE, A PLACA EH UMA MERDA:
Axe graphics processor is designed for the volume desktop PC market. It supports full OpenGL ® 1.3 and Microsoft DirectX ® 8.1 feature set with MatrixAA™ anti-aliasing.
Axe builds on Bitboys patented XBA™ technology, and a complete prototype chip has been manufactured by Infineon Technologies on their 0.17 micron embedded DRAM process. As Infineon has closed down its embedded DRAM fabrication line, Bitboys will not bring Axe to the PC desktop market.
The processor contains over 6 million logic gates and 12M bytes of embedded DRAM memory, working together with external SDRAM memory (up-to 128M bytes). The memory is connected to the graphics engine via a multi-channel memory management unit that provides the extreme bandwidth required by the core pixel processor.
The rendering engine processes four pixels and two textures every clock cycle, performing advanced texture filtering, color blending and shading in real-time. High visual quality is achieved through a combination of precise color processing and MatrixAA™ anti-aliasing.
A multithreaded, four-ALU geometry processor supporting DirectX ® 8 vertex shading and primitive processing, feeds the rendering engine.
The Axe graphics processor also features a dual-channel video image output, with a mix of analog or digital RGBA monitor, TV or digital flat-panel display.
The graphics processor is connected to the PC through an AGP 2X/4X industry standard interface.

COISAS A SE NOTAR:

(Ela vai usar memoria externa e nao integrada...)
*four pixels and two textures every clock cycle
bah.. a placa nem vais er acessivel pra nois usuarios de pc ordinarios... nem sei pra que eles tao trazendo uma placa tao merda como essa no meio de uma tormenta de placas monstruosas
EDIT:
QUE EMRPESA IDIOTA olhem isso:
no comeco eles falam:
Axe graphics processor is designed for the volume desktop PC market.
e logo depois:
Bitboys will not bring Axe to the PC desktop market.
AFf... pelomenos facam uma coisa direito...
