Graphics Choices from the Leader in Visual Computing
Both technical and creative professionals will appreciate the high-resolution
8-bit (virtual 24-bit) Indy graphics subsystem. These subsystems provide
tremendous imaging, 2D, and 3D performance.
Indy works with amazing speed: up to 1.6 million X11 lines per second and
51 million pixels per second--all with 1280 x 1024 screen resolution and up to
76Hz refresh rate. With Indy XL graphics you can manipulate images at up to
1.6M 2D and 800K 3D vectors per second. Indy achieves higher performance
with line and triangle drawings than any other comparably priced system.
For those who need even greater 3D performance, there's the Indy XZ
which dedicates 180Mflops of power to 3D work. Indy XZ brings interactive
3D performance to your desk without destroying your budget.

Industry-Leading Power
Indy graphics draws 1.6 million X-lines/sec and fills 51Mpixels/sec,
providing unsurpassed performance for demanding imaging and line drawing
applications.
Enhanced Performance
Anti-aliasing through area-sampling, 256 sub-pixel positions, and endpoint
filtering enhance performance for wireframe applications such as mechanical
CAD and molecular modeling.
REX3
The Raster Engine (REX3) ASIC converts geometric data processed by the CPU
into pixel and line data in the frame buffer. The REX3 supports peak fill
rates of 437M pixels/sec for block fills and 62 Mpixels/sec for shaded spans.
