Hi.
This may be a repost, i havnt checked, but Xbitlabs has a review of a pre-production board of a DeltaCrome.
http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/video/display/s3-deltachrome.html
Quite an interesting read.
It has 99% free AF. The performance drop between non and 16xAF, is 1-2fps. Which is very good. Its IQ seems quite good as well.
With a bit of driver work, the board tested (whichever model it is) could be a very strong competitor for the 9600XTs and the 5700s.
Roll on the retail boards!

Looks like crap to me, it performs really bad, like a 5200 in gaming benchmarks.

Possible driver problem.
