Johan De Gelas van Ace's Hardware heeft het tweede deel van zijn Ultimate 3D Video Deathmatch online geketst. In dit deel worden zaken als overclocking, image quality en DVD playback _zeer_ uitgebreid besproken met betrekking tot alle momenteel populaire 3D versnellers. Zeker een must-read voor iedereen die van plan is een nieuwe videokaart in huis te nemen! Hieronder want over DVD playback:
As 3DFx and Nvidia were and are still very popular, people have been led to believe that the omission of hardware support for Motion Compensation is no real problem for watching DVDs on your PC. A PII-400 was supposed to be capable of carrying the burden of those huge DVD streams alone. Wrong! Most people who have watched DVDs on their PCs can say that a PII-400 is simply not enough.Tests by C't, the reputable German IT magazine, have clearly shown that even a PIII-500 drops a frame now and then. No, if you want smooth DVD on your PC, a video card with hardware DVD playback is greatly needed. Only the cards from ATI, S3, and the GeForces support Motion Compensation in hardware. With such a card you only need a PII-350 to watch DVDs without dropping frames. ATI's Videocards, namely the ATI Rage Pro, and Maxx, incorporate iDCT (inverse discrete cosine transform) as well, making DVD a pleasant experience even on a PII-266/300 (or K6-2 350).
En bedankt D3ton4tor die dit aan ons kwam vertellen.
