TV Out Support 3
In addition, the Radeon® 9600 PRO PC & Mac Edition offers the
following graphics technologies:
SmoothVision™ 2.1 is an antialiasing solution that raises the bar for image
quality using programmable multi-sampling methods to post-process
graphics before they are displayed.
SmartShader™ 2.0 contains advanced vertex and pixel-shading
capabilities. A shader is a small program that runs on the GPU and
describes how an image should be rendered. Vertex shaders manipulate the
individual polygons that make up 3D objects, and pixel shaders operate on
the individual pixels that fill in these polygons to create a visible image.
SmartShader™ 2.0 is designed to alleviate the resource constraints of
earlier shader hardware, paving the way for more complex, detailed, and
realistic shader effects in applications requiring high-performance 3D
rendering.
HyperZ™ III makes Z-buffer bandwidth usage more efficient by
decreasing the amount of information sent to the frame buffer at higher
resolutions.
Radeon® 9600 PRO PC & Mac Edition only displays 3D graphics in
thousands and millions of colors. If you set your display to 256 colors, this
will affect Finder™, OpenGL®, Quartz® Extreme, and QuickTime®
acceleration.
TV Out Support
The Radeon® 9600 PRO PC & Mac Edition supports TV Out by using the
