Overview Hardware Software
MAGNA 300
Mathematical and scientifical applications demand ultimate power of the processor, particularly of the Floating Point Unit (FPU). The fastest currently available PowerPC is the Mach5 processor from Motorola. It is the heart of the MAGNA 300. CAD, DTP, Video processing, and 3-D applications become productive as never before on the MAGNA 300. With 60 MHz bus clock, an AV-capable Ultra-SCSI harddisk (4.5 GB), an Ultra-SCSI host adaptor, and 80 MB working storage, all data can stream at full speed. The 128-bit graphics output (8 MB SGRAM) offers accelerated 3D graphics. As peripherals there are provided a 24x CD-ROM, a ZIP drive, and an Ethernet adaptor.
