Quick Installation About your Fire G L4 Hardware Design The Fire GL4 is an AGP/ATX card based upon the IBM RC 1000/ GT 1000 chipset. With the ability to support two monitors and 128 MB of on-board memory the Fire GL4 is ideal for digital content creation, high-end CAD and other sophisticated 3D applications. The RC1000 256 bit graphics rasterizer provides the functionality of a VGA controller, a 2D/3D raster engine with geometry pipeline setup processor, and a 300 MHz RAMDAC. It also supports video streaming by providing color space conversion and a bilinear scaling unit. The GT1000 hardware geometry engine is a complete transformation and lighting engine with hardware implementation of the full open OpenGL pipeline and most of the Direct3D geometry pipeline.

Hardware Design
The Fire GL4 is an AGP/ATX card based upon the IBM RC 1000/
GT 1000 chipset. With the ability to support two monitors and
128 MB of on-board memory the Fire GL4 is ideal for digital content
creation, high-end CAD and other sophisticated 3D applications.
The RC1000 256 bit graphics rasterizer provides the functionality of
a VGA controller, a 2D/3D raster engine with geometry pipeline
setup processor, and a 300 MHz RAMDAC. It also supports video
streaming by providing color space conversion and a bilinear scaling
unit.
The GT1000 hardware geometry engine is a complete transformation
and lighting engine with hardware implementation of the full open
OpenGL pipeline and most of the Direct3D geometry pipeline.
