The VX1 AGP graphics controller incorporates 32 MB of memory in
a NLX/ATX AGP card. This product has shown an outstanding 2D performance
of 35 Xmarks on an 833 MHZ CPU Alpha system with 4X AGP mode
configuration.
Functionality and uses
The VX1 AGP module is a high-quality graphics controller for professionals
requiring solid 2D features. Multi-head support in conjunction with
the VX1 AGP is available on all AGP capable Alpha systems. A combination
of one VX1 AGP and one or more VX1 PCI graphics controllers may
reside in the same system. Only one PCI graphics controller may
be used for the VGA console, and it must be placed on the primary
PCI bus. The number of video cards supported varies depending on
system type, with at least 4 cards on most systems. Please refer
