3D Prophet III has 3 objectives:
be your state of the art fragging device, adapt to future visual enhancements in 3D games and to be blazingly fast.
The most powerful, most fully featured graphics processor combined with Hercules' expertise to push NVIDIA architecture as far as it can go.
- Revolutionary 3D architecture powered by NVIDIA's new generation GeForce3 and its highly innovative nFinite-FX™ engine to produce incredible realism
- Optimized board design and improved stability with customized cooling solution
• Pure innovation in 3D acceleration: extremely high performance levels
- Combination of the most advanced GPU architecture with the fastest chipset and RAM: 200MHz core clock mated to 64MB onboard DDR RAM operating at 460MHz.
- Lightspeed Memory Architecture™ to boost gameplay even in the highest of resolutions
- Incredible 800 Billion operations/sec - 57 Million transistors
• Optimal fluidity of photo-realistic 3D objects and geometrically heavy scenes
- Highly innovative programmable nFinite-FX™ Vertex and Pixel Shading engine providing support for a new generation of real-time animated texturing and geometric effects, processed in hardware by the GPU.
- High Resolution, High Frame Rate, Full-scene Anti-alisasing (FSAA)
Real-time animation of reflective bump mapped objects Transform & Lighting effects Complex animation: Natural character skinning
• GeForce3: the benchmark processor for new API and game enhancements
- With 3D Prophet III providing full hardware support for OpenGL 1.2 and DirectX8 acceleration, 3D models and 3D environments with highly complex geometry have never been more crisp, vibrant and highly detailed in real-time gaming.
• Experience DVD movies on your TV with PowerDVD™ software enhanced by 3D Prophet III's motion compensation hardware engine: silky smooth DVD playback on NTSC & Pal TV sets from resolutions of 640x480 to 1024x768 (HDTV-like resolution)
• DVI connector to display on digital flat panels at resolutions up to 1600x1200
