Sony announced their new graphics chip:
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" size="2">SAN FRANCISCO — Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. has disclosed more details of its latest graphics rendering engine, a 462-mm2 beast that makes the company's Graphics Synthesizer chip featured in Sony's Playstation 2 look like child's play.
The device contains 256-Mbit of on-chip embedded DRAM, or eight times more than the current Graphics Synthesizer. The DRAM and wide 2,000-bit internal buses can deliver 48 gigabytes per second of bandwidth.
In raw graphics performance, the chip can process 75 million polygons per second, has a pixel fill rate between 1.2 and 2.6 gigapixels/s and can draw 75 million polygons/s, according to Aurangzeb Khan, vice president of Simplex Solution Inc. (Sunnyvale, Calif.), who presented a paper on the graphics processor here at International Solid-State Circuits Conference.</font>
