Savage2000 Announced landed today, giving players another thing to circle on the calendar.

Rapidly following on the award-winning success of the Savage4 accelerator, S3 Incorporated today announced its next-generation graphics platform, the Savage2000 accelerator.

Featuring stunning 3D performance for PC gamers, complete digital video playback and TV-out support for home users, and high-resolution 2D image quality and digital flat panel support for professional users, Savage2000 combines extreme functionality and speed to deliver today’s most complete PC graphics solution. S3 also announced today that Diamond Multimedia will produce the first Savage2000-based retail add-in card.

available on retail shelves for Christmas, Diamond’s soon to be announced Savage2000 card will deliver a superior sub-$250 solution for end-users seeking stunning 2D, 3D, DTV and DVD performance.

PC hardware is moving stupid fast right now, and this is one more part of that arms race.
