Flash 3D-II TVpro Announced

Hightech Suppliers announced today the availability, pricing and configuration of it's newest 3D accelerator, the Flash 3D-II TVpro.

Flash 3D-II TVpro Announced is the story on November 11, 1998, and it is one of those late-1998 PC gaming updates that says exactly where the scene is right now. Hightech Suppliers announced today the availability, pricing and configuration of it's newest 3D accelerator, the Flash 3D-II TVpro. Flash 3D-II TVpro, based on the 3Dfx Interactive Voodoo2 chipset, features a full configuration of 12MB fast EDO DRAM (8MB of texture memory and 4MB frame buffer).

Flash 3D-II TVpro is the first Voodoo2 board to feature driver-free, professional quality TV output, with 2D and 3D resolutions up to 1024×768. Using a special pass through cable, users are able to add Flash 3D-II TVpro to their current primary video card. This unique design allows for maximum compatibility and also adds TV output features to any existing 2D video card. Drivers and hardware updates are not glamorous, but when they fix a game or unlock a card you already paid for, they matter.
