VGX performance in a desktop machine

RE: VGX performance in a desktop machine
Hello Bitpak,

The VGX/VGXT systems are a very early 3D accelerator and are pretty close to the RealityEngine, at least for non-textured routines. The Extreme Graphics set is based on a much more basic design -- frankly I'd say an IMPACT (i.e that in an Octane) would be a closer comparison because they do have texture capabilities on the VGX -- it's also a great example of how graphics hardware can be miniaturized. But that being said, there's no "mini-VGX" if that's your goal.

Technical problems should be sent my way.
