Kyro II Review -- 10:42 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun
AnandTech has a review of the Hercules 3D Prophet 4500, powered by the Kyro II chip from Imagination Technologies. The Kyro II is a descendant of the PowerVR chips and is based on tile-rendering technology. The benchmarks are impressive for the most part, especially for a $149 board. It takes a beating in games that make use of hardware T&L though, since the Kyro II has no T&L engine. My only concern from that standpoint is, while it works great with today's games, you have to wonder what's going to happen with the games that come out around Christmas. Thanks to our very own J for the link.Recent Headlines
