GIGABYTE Technology Co. Ltd., a world-leading VGA card manufacturer, today announced a series of VGA cards that will feature the revolutionary 90 nanometer Radeon^® X1300 Pro visual processors, high-performance 256MB DDRII video memory, and unique GIGABYTE Silent-Pipe soundless heat pipe cooling technology. With the Ultra-threaded core 3D architecture and optimized shader engine, the GV-RX13P256D not only fully supports Microsoft^® Direct^® X 9.0 Shader Model 3.0, but also greatly improves the efficiency and quality of image rendering. As the industry's foremost heat pipe solution, GIGABYTE proprietary Silent-Pipe technology ensures that the GV-RX13P256D runs at a stable and reliable temperature. Furthermore, the GV-RX13P256D boasts all features that high-end cards have, including Ultra-threading Dispatch Processor to substantially increase the internal processing efficiency of the VPU and upgrade the performance of pixel shaders. With full DirectX 9.0 Shader Model 3.0 support and FP32 vertex shader engine, the GV-RX13P256D is the first mainstream architecture to have always on 128-bit floating point processing. This enables new levels for CPU and VPU communication, and brings a new era of high image quality. What's more, the GV-RX13P256D also supports high precision HDR (High Dynamic Range) technology, which takes advantage of color formats with greater range and can produce more realistic images while enabling blending and anti-aliasing at the same time. In addition to groundbreaking 3D performance, the GIGABYTE GV-RX13P256D provides Avivo™ video and display enhancement technology, the complete 2D and video processing solution that enables superior quality and High-Definition (HD) visual experiences on the PC; moreover, it is a first to support full10-bit processing, ensuring end-to-end high-fidelity from the moment video signals enter your PC, all the way to the image displayed on your monitor.
