Xabre II RoadMap

Not too much new, but it confirms what we pretty much already expected.

SiS 340: AGP 8X, 8 Pixel pipelines, 375MHz core/500MHz DDR II. DX9
SiS 341: AGP 8X, 4 Pixel pipelines, 375MHz core/500MHz DDR II. DX9

Sounds good. First wave of Xabres weren't too good for the price, but these sound interesting. Nice to see them using DDR-II, very ambitious. 😉

Thanks for the info Rand,

Interesting... I wonder what kind of performance they will offer...

Are these .15 or .13? I'd heard SiS was having problems with their move to .13

According to this--from the same source as Rand's initial post--it will be on .13-micron.

hopefully more competition leads to lower costs for consumers...

hope they fix the drivers. the Xabre 1 drivers are atrocious.
