A family PC has to be a real crowd-pleaser: your son wants fast, thrill-packed 3D games; your daughter is developing a talent for computer artwork; your wife has a black belt in Internet browsing; and you enjoy watching the occasional DVD movie. Oh, and you also don't have money to burn. Well, ATI's XPERT 2000 is the upgrade for you: an inexpensive graphics card that meets everyone's wants and expectations. The XPERT 2000 uses ATI's acclaimed Rage 128 graphics core, a fast 128-bit chip that provides plenty of 3D acceleration for a smooth gaming experience. With a full 32MB of memory on the card, the XPERT 2000 has the resources needed to handle 32-bit color and high resolutions in 3D games. The 3D features and effects of both OpenGL and DirectX are supported, including fog, texture lighting, video textures, reflections, shadows, spotlights, LOD biasing, MIP mapping, Z-buffering and texture morphing. Single-pass multi-texturing allows the XPERT 2000 to render special 3D effects such as reflections and translucency in a single cycle, so as not to incur a serious performance hit. If you've invested in a large monitor for your PC (and for graphics creation and DVD movies, a large monitor is almost essential), you'll appreciate the high screen resolutions and image clarity afforded by the XPERT 2000's fast RAMDAC and 32MB of memory. The card produces True Color screens (16 million colors) at 2D resolutions up to 1600x1200, which is great for a 19-inch monitor. For day-to-day applications like word processing, email, and Web browsing, the XPERT 2000 delivers crisp, clear screens with fast refresh rates that help prevent eye strain. Many graphics cards claim to support DVD playback, but most of them perform the actual MPEG-2 or DVD decoding using software. The XPERT 2000 provides hardware-based DVD decoding, which is much more effective and does not require as much power from your processor. Having one card for both computer graphics and DVD decoding works out to be quite a cost-saver. All in all, ATI's XPERT 2000 is one of your top choices for adding advanced multimedia to your PC. You get a 32MB graphics card at a price more typical of 16MB cards, as well as hardware DVD support. Upgrade your PC with the XPERT 2000 and enjoy beautiful 3D, video, and Internet browsing: fun for the whole family!
