- No. The largest display resolution it supports is 640 x 480, albeit at 16
- bits/pixel. The 16" display requires an 832 x 624 resolution with faster
- video timing than the IIvx can provide.
-
- So with an Apple 8-24 card and 1MB of VRAM, how many bits per pixel
- can a IIvx display on a 16" screen?
