And I thought S3 had given up the fight after its Virge line of video cards peformed miserably against 3DFX in the past, but apparently the company is still alive and kicking, with the Chrome 400 GTX being based on the low-profile PCI Express Gen 2 graphics card specification, targeting PC users who want the advantage of dual-stream Picture-in-Picture (PiP) 1080p Blu-ray Disc playback with the latest DirectX 10.1/OpenGL 2.1 unified shader architecture. It will run on GDDR3 memory and claims to outperform the current market leader (ATI Radeon HD 3470) in its class by more than 15% in 3D benchmarks and rendered frames-per-second in the most popular DX10 and DX9 games. Folks building a HTPC ought to consider this, especially at an attractive price point of just £35.
