Matrox confirms Parhelia only AGP 4X
Parhelia只有AGP 4X
轉貼自Anandtech That story stemmed from two Matrox official documents which gave contradictory information about AGP support. Because 3D companies insist that AGP 8X and DirectX 9 are crucial for future generation 3D hardware, it was important for us to find out which type of AGP Matrox supports. We contacted Matrox yesterday and the company has confirmed that the Parhelia 512 is an AGP 4X part. However, bear in mind that cards based on the technology will be fully compatible with AGP 8X motherboards that have started to put their heads above the parapet. Matrox said that one of the reasons why its chip is AGP 4X part is because it is shipping Parhelia before broad AGP 8X introduction and this is something that we can agree, since Intel hasn't launched its AGP 8X hardware and the brood of Chipzilla chipsets is mighty indeed. |

I wonder if AGP 8X socket identical to AGP 4X or not?
Doesn't AGP 8X support AGP 4X as well? Why Matrox doesn't just make Parhelia a AGP 8X card (only if the sockets are the same), so that we can use it on the current AGP 4X mainboards, and upgrade to AGP 8X when new mainboards are available? |

我想這是比較聰明的做法 在AGP 8X的主機板或是晶片組(尤其是Intel)尚未現身時 先表明只能跑AGP 4X 免得像G400時出現明明公佈可以跑AGP 4X卻辦不到的情形 |

我猜可能先出AGP 4X的版本
等AGP 8X的主機板現身時,再出8X的版本(同時把製程提升至0.13微米,迎戰NV30和R300)
