The release of the new 3D Prophet Titanium Series is in-keeping with Hercules' strategy of ensuring the satisfaction of its end-users,” says Claude Guillemot, President of Hercules. The most powerful graphics processors teamed up with Hercules' expertise. The new 3D Prophet Titanium line-up, consisting of 3D Prophet III Titanium 500, 3D Prophet III Titanium 200 and 3D Prophet II Titanium, offers powerful and highly featured 3D solutions to enhance the new 3D effects used by games developers. The 3 boards operate with a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) enabling turbo-boosted 3D performance in games requiring large texture buffers. 3D Prophet Titanium accelerators benefit from Hercules' expert material adjustments, including RAM heatsinks and cooling fans, for a significant leap ahead of existing solutions. Each board also incorporates multi-media features for display through a high quality TV/Video Output on NTSC and PAL TV, and comes with PowerDVD 3.0 software for experiencing DVD movies. 3D Prophet III Titanium 500 The characteristics of the 3D Prophet III Titanium 500 place it in the ultra-fast race category. 3D Prophet III Titanium 500 is designed around the industry's most powerful graphics processor, GeForce3 Titanium 500, with the enhanced nFinite-FX™ engine and DirectX 8 Programmable Vertex and Pixel Shaders.
