SiS Mirage™3+ Graphics ~ A New Symbo of Windows Vista™ Premium

Gamers usually decide to purchase a certain brand of motherboard not only based on its brand name and what functions it supports, but also based on the brand name and models of chipsets. The brand name and carried functions are not the only reasons which make users decide to buy a certain brand of motherboard, but also the chipset of the motherboard is another critical factor during the purchasing process. Almost all the functions, which a motherboard provides, need to be supported by Southbridge and Northbridge chipsets. Therefore, no matter how efficient the components are, the system still needs an extraordinary chipsets to optimize the performance. The latest SiS672FX series chipsets, including SiS672FX/SiS672 for desktop PCs and SiSM672MX for notebook PCs, are fully compatible for Windows Vista™ Premium. Besides, with the integrated SiS Mirage™3+ graphics engine and SiS’ proprietary Power Management Technology, the chipsets will definitely increase the efficiency of the system.

SiS Mirage™3+ graphics to be integrated in the SiS672FX chipset

All of the SiS672 series chipsets have been certified for Windows Vista™ Premium, of course the SiS672FX is included. The SiS672FX can be smoothly paired with all Intel CPUs of FSB up to 1066MHz, including Pentium®4, Pentium® D, Core™2 Duo, and Core™2 Quad CPUs, which provides a full-line of solutions from entry-level to high-end to all PC users. On the other hand, the SiS672FX chipset basically supports DDR2 memory up to DDR2-667, and can be overclocked to DDR2-800. With the integrated 256-bit 3D graphics engine --Mirage™3+, which has been optimized in hardware or software terms, the SiS672FX chipset can successfully support the Pixel Shader 2.0, Pixel and Texture pipelines, Texture filtering and Cubic mapping. And for satisfying higher graphics demand, the SiS672FX provides one PCI Express x16 slot for extra add-on graphics card. Furthermore, the SiS672FX is also highly power-saving, which enables the longer system duration and higher overall system efficiency.

SiSM672MX to optimize your Notebook PCs

SiS's power-saving technology can be performed completely on notebook PCs. Because of the advanced hardware architecture and SiS Mirage™3+ graphics, the SiSM672MX chipset provides great graphics processing performance. SiS's "Advanced Power Management" technology is one of the most important features of the SiSM672MX chipset. The Northbridge chipset can adjust the CPU clock, depending on the work load of the system, to effectively reduce power-consumption. As for the paired Southbridge chipset, the SiS968, it can detect the working condition of each I/O and then temporary shut down the I/O ports to save power. However, once the gamer needs to use the certain devices or programs, the SiSM672MX/SiS968 chipsets still can get system back to normal condition in a short time. It's obvious that SiS has put a lot of effort on designing more environmental-friendly devices.

The SiS672FX series chipset is certified for Windows Vista™ Premium edition, and all of them deliver excellent image quality. Besides, the SiS672FX series chipset performs extremely high quality with most power saving technology. We can say the SiS672FX series chipset is the best choice for cross-platform integrated chipset.
