what is ATI "Kaleidoscope" ?

[feldt]

new mainstream core that will support AMR, or the integrated GFX part in atis 2005 amd/intel chipset supporting SM3.0 ?

Unless I'm mistaken, I believe this is the only info that has ever been posted anywhere on kaleidoscope.

Its not a "product" / chip. The clue is in the name.

so its another name for atis SurroundView.. but will the IGP be able to work with the pcie part using AMR?

RX690(x700- class) + R430/R480/R520 in amr ?

sounds pretty neat to me..

It's tiling, the way a kaleidoscope forms images out of fragments.

So, it's vapourware?

 

[Basic]

A kaleidoscope shows one image mirrored to lots of places.
Does that mean that it's a way to show the same image on many monitors?

Damn, this is something I would really like to speculate on... too bad I already know what it is.

It's an anagram of "EEs pack old I/O ".

SurroundView!?!?!?!?!?!?!? like as in REAL Matrox-style!? not this thing with "buy and ATi board with integrated graphics and put in another ATi card" but REAL 3-monitor single-card view!?


ooooor.... ATi's name for SLI-over-PCI-e

It's a new product we plan on introducing. It's a long tube, with a small hole at one end. At the other, there's a rotating disk filled with small colored blocks. The rotating disk is semi-transparent. The colorful image projected through the hole is full color (much higher than 32b), fully gamma-corrected & very high AA. You're going to be amazed!

Don't forget the $500 MSRP.

how many tarnsistors does it have, what process is it being made on, and what's its power consumption / heat output? I don't want to have to buy a new PSU.

Miraculous new optical power system -- It runs on direct sunlight or desk lamps!

However, you will need a new PSU. That's just how it always is.

Urgh, the smugness is unbearable.

Yeah but don't worry - the opposition will have their own version out shortly afterwards. It'll have two modes: supa-dupa colour and not-so-supa-but-faster-that-dupa colour. Oh and it'll have an extra special mode that with a click of a button you get TWO tubes instead of one, but you won't see anything in colour. The biggest selling point will be that it have all the additional twist grips and buttons that tube developers have been crying out for future designs. ATI don't stand a chance....
