OK, here it is! But don´t tell anyone yet.

Here you can read about the new <a href="http://w1.877.telia.com/~u87712637/Goat.pdf" target="_blank">Matrox GOAT</a>

[K6-III]

Time for some skepticism, but I don't know...

[TdB]

350mhz gpu! 16 layer multitexture + 4xfsaa in one pass by coprocessor at 700mhz!!!

128 mb 400ddr and an interresting mention of HSR.

AND best of all: 20" "tft-shaped(almost)" monitor included!!!!!!




oh, and almost forgot: pixel and vertex-shaders.

Edit: If this is true, then you can remember me as the first one to disbelieve it =)
Edit2: And such a nice name it has... I think even "Ralph" would sell better =)

[TdB]

make that 2 vertexshaders...

is this the parhelia? or another fake?

if it is real, then i have only one complain: the name.

"Matrox GOAT", it sounds REALLY stupid, i will buy it anyway, if it isn´t too expensive.

I think GOAT is the acronym for the technology. It may be silly, but what do you say about Quincunx, MUTIOL and so forth.

Of course the retail card will have another name (I hope)

i don´t really think this is a fake.
most fakes, are just nvidia spec multiplied by 2.
it is too "different" to be a fake.

what happend to parhelia, at least that didn´t sound stupid, is this the parhelia or something else we haven´t heard of?
hmm! atleast it starts with the letter "G"

[TdB]

something confuses me about this pdf, i mean who is it for? the matrox pr-department, for internal use
we never see this kind of stuff on the their website.

it isn´t nearly as crazy as headcasting, but it sounds like matrox to me.

The PDF is made with CorelDraw 10 at 3/5/2002 19:32:31 so I guess it's definatly a fake one.

Only yesterday the register announced that Samsung will produce 400Mhz DDR ram. And now a Matrox card would use this same type 128Mb of 400Mhz DDR.

[guillenv]

fake!

this is another fake

[TdB]

hmm! i guess i made a fool out of myself this time.


if it is a fake, then it was the best one i have read so far, i actually believed it.
