The SUN Microsystems XVR-4000 Graphics Accelerator

RE: The SUN Microsystems XVR-4000 Graphics Accelerator
I should correct myself about the anti-aliasing. The number of samples depends on the selected resolution. In this case it was ~10 samples per pixel. Check this table:

I've updated the web page and added all new results (including this card) - see attached for comparison with SGI VPro V12 and contemporary NEC, ATI and NVIDIA cards.

XVR-4000 is one of the weirdest cards we have tested. It is designed for high internal color precision and high-precision realtime anti-aliasing. I believe that this card could outrun its competitors by far in certain applications. However, it was not so good as a general-purpose 3D accelerator.
