 SIS Xabre600
Vertexilisers and Ximiators
(Review by MS, Nov 26, 2002)

SPEC ViewPerf

The official OpenGL benchmark issued by SPEC.org beats pretty hard on any graphics card, particularly, those without drivers optimized for this kind of industrial strength OpenGL applications. In other words, workstation graphics cards like 3DLabs PVU series or ATI's FireGL, not to mention the nVidia Quattro family are here at home, most other cards look somewhat pale in comparison to these monsters.


Pixel Shaders

Against all expectations, the Xabre600 gives a pretty good show here. What is even more surprising, though, is the performance of the Tachyon G9000 Pro which beats the nominally stronger GF4 Ti4200 in all disciplines.
