- Hello,
-
- I was thinking of purchasing the ESPRIX X window system
- accellerator for my Sparc. I am using Figaro PHIGS+ to do some
- 3D animation, and (I am not sure) apparently I have a bottleneck
- when the graphics are actually drawn in an X window.
-
- I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this
- board, and whether you think it will help in rendering 3D
- graphics in an X window.
-
- Also, are there any other graphic accellerator boards available
- which are capable of driving various monitor resolutions
- (including VGA).
-
- Thanks.
