FEATURES- FireGL V7100 (Visualization Series)- Retail Package
       The FireGL Visualization series of workstation graphics accelerators 
        is designed specifically for the new, high-bandwidth PCI Express
        bus, and is architected to deliver unprecedented speed and image 
        quality for real-time visualization. True cinematic quality 
        rendering of complex geometry is now available for compelling 
        animation, visual effects, mechanical design and leading-edge 
        business communication. 
       The bridgeless, single-chip design of the FireGL native PCI Express 
        graphics processor fully engages all of the benefits of this 
        interconnect standard in the safest, most cost effective, and most 
        reliable transition from AGP. Unlike other  bridged  PCI Express 
        implementations, ATIs FireGL PCI Express products deliver full 
        bandwidth in both upstream and downstream directions, doubling the 
        capabilities of previous products.
       ATIs FireGL cards -- whether PCI Express x16 lane or AGP 8X -- are 
        designed to accelerate 3D workstation applications based on OpenGL
        and Microsoft DirectX 9.0. With full certification on the leading 
        computer aided design (CAD), architecture/engineering/construction 
        (AEC) and digital content creation (DCC) applications, FireGL is 
        the high performance choice for graphics professionals working in 
        Windows or Linux based systems.
