Taipei, Taiwan; November 25, 2005 – ASUSTeK
Computer Inc (ASUS), a leading provider of high-performance graphics
solutions, today introduced the EAX1800XT TOP graphics card, which
incorporated ATI's flagship Radeon X1800XT VPU (video processing unit)
to provide the video capability needed for robust PC video systems.
To
offer stable operation to go with powerful performance, the EAX1800XT
TOP leveraged the innovative Arctic Cooling technology, bringing
efficient heat dissipation to the world of high-quality visual
enjoyment. With industry-leading graphics expertise and advanced
technology, the EAX1800XT TOP offers a 10% performance enhancement
compared to competing solutions. Furthermore, as the ultimate graphics
card for hardcore 3D gamers, it bundled the official game of “King
Kong” the movie and XitePad gamepad, which together valued at close to
US$100.
The EAX1800XT TOP adopted advanced visual technology
standards, including Shader Model 3.0, High Dynamic Rendering (HDR),
and support for high-resolution LCD up to 2560 x 1600. In additional to
industry-leading specifications, the graphics cards also incorporated
exclusive innovations found only on ASUS solutions.
ASUS GameReplay: Practice
makes perfect, and that holds true in gaming as well. For popular LAN
(local area network) party team games such as Counter Strike and Unreal
Tournaments, strategy is the key to victory. GameReplay records gaming
action into MPEG4 video files so that teams can review all the moves
and tactics to improve for the next tournament. The recorded files can
also be used as screen savers or posted on blogs.
GameLiveShow: Just
like people who share their lives and thoughts on blogs, expert gamers
often want to show off their perfectly executed strategies and five-hit
combinations. GameLiveShow is created to allow gamers to stream
broadcast their gaming experiences live over the Internet. Other
players can now go online to check out how the experts really do it.
GameFace Messenger: It
is a user-friendly interface similar to those of the most popular
messenger services to simplify the process of inviting multiple players
to a gameferences (game conferences). Register, log on and start the
fun. GameFace Messenger is as easy as the free messengers currently in
the market.
Splendid Video Intelligence Technology: Built
into the driver of ASUS graphics cards, Splendid detects activation and
usage of video applications and automatically optimizes image quality
for the best visual results. Splendid further provides five modes for
best visual results in different video applications (Standard, Game,
Theater, Scenery and Night)
