The SIMMs are 162 pin, 40H3581, four chips on front, one
on back, IBM025161LG5D-70 directly soldered to the PCB via a "saddle".
Magenta is the code name for the GXT500/D graphics adapters
Three different classes of 3D graphics adapters:
Class I -- does not provide unique
hardware for 3D graphics operations. Provides a frame buffer and
all graphics processing is done by the system CPU.
Class II -- provides hardware
rasterization for 3D graphics functions and relies on the system CPU for
geometry processing.
Class III -- performs all 3D graphics
processing including hardware support for rasterization and 3D geometry.
The GXT500 and GXT500D are IBM's
first implementation of a class II graphics adapter. These class
II solutions utilize IBM's powerful PowerPC processor to drive the graphics
geometry pipeline and the new GXT500 and GXT500D to perform 3D rasterization
of graphics functions. The benefits derived from this design are
scalability of graphics performance with CPU performance and lower
cost 3D graphics hardware.
The GXT500 and GXT500D provide
support for state-of-the-art graphics functions like hidden-line/surface
removal, antialiasing, Gouraud shading, depth cueing, transparency, texture
mapping and accumulation. They support display resolutions of 1,280
x 1,024 and 1,024 x 768, including support for monitors that comply with
Part 3 of the ISO 9241 ergonomic standard. This standard provides
users with improved viewing, reduced-flicker images, minimized reflections
and sharper characters.
Stereo viewing is supported on
both the GXT500 and GXT500D. Stereo viewing is a method used to add depth
to an image rendered on the 2D surface of a monitor. The method supported
is the Crystal Eyes** system by StereoGraphics Corp. A pair of LCD
glasses and an IR transmitter are required and must be purchased separately.
Notice: When installing or using a StereoGraphics transmitter for
3D viewing, use only a transmitter manufactured for attaching to the IBM
GXT500 or GXT500D graphics adapters. It has a BNC and DB-9 connector.
Other models of the transmitter have only a DB-9 connector and will not
work with the GXT500 and GXT500D.
AIX Version 4.1 is required for
support of the GXT500 or GXT500D on the Models 42T and 42W. On the
Models 41T and 41W either AIX/6000 Version 3.2.5 or AIX Version 4.1 is
required.
GXT500 and GXT500D Support:
o The display of up to 16.7-million simultaneous colors
o 60 to 77Hz Refresh Modes (on appropriate displays)
o Stereo viewing
o Single card, 60x bus attachment
o Four hardware color maps
