S3 offers affordable graphics card for home theater
I wish some reputable site would review an S3 card. They might be perfect for an HTPC. Around $60-70, use less than 25 Watts, and hardware accelleration for Blu-ray.
The company announced Thursday the latest addition to its
power-efficient Chrome 500 Series graphics processor family, the 850MHz
DDR3-based Chrome 540 GTX GPU.
The new GPU is capable of handling dual-stream Blu-ray and HD videos.
It features a DisplayPort digital interface and HDMI and dual-link DVI
and therefore supports connectivity to the latest digital monitors and
HDTVs.
