Elitegroup Computer Systems launched their new graphics card based on the SiS Xabre 600 GPU. Apparently, the graphics card is not the same they showcased at Comdex Fall 2002 a number of weeks ago.

If you remember (if not, see this news-story), the original product was equipped with D-Sub, DVI-I, TV-Out and a connector for 3D-glasses. What was strange, ECS had clocked the device at 275/600MHz for core and 64MB of DDR SDRAM memory. Despite of SiS’ recommendations, ECS also utilised TSOP memory chips instead of BGA memory devices. Well, it seems that by now one of the largest Taiwanese computer components maker has changed its mind and launches a totally different graphics card compared to the original one. At the moment the plan to start offering SiS Xabre 600-based solution, made fully according to the reference design, with BGA memory, running at 300/600MHz for GPU/DDR SDRAM and with D-Sub, DVI-I and a TV-Out onboard.<%BANNER[article]%>
