minimum system requirements:
• Any Power Macintosh computer with a PCI (66MHz or
33MHz) expansion slot
• Mac OS 9.0 or Mac OS X version 10.1
• OpenGL 1.2.2 (required for 3D graphics)
• Apple monitor, VGA-style monitor (see note below),DVI-I

Viewing 3D Graphics
RADEON 7000 MAC EDITION’s 3D Acceleration features
supports the following advanced 3D graphics capabilities:
• OpenGL Support
• QuickDraw 3D Rave Support
• Twin Cache Architecture
• Single Pass Multi-texturing
• Triangle Setup Engine
• Bilinear/Trilinear Filtering
• Line Anti-aliasing
• Specular Highlights
• Perspectively Correct Texture Mapping
•Mip-Mapping
• Z-buffering and Double-buffering
• Spherical, Dual-Paraboloid, 3D Texturing and Cubic
environment mapping
These features make it possible to quickly render 3D graphics,
produce atmospheric effects, calculate light and color shading,
and determine which objects are in the foreground and which
are in the background.
RADEON 7000 MAC EDITION only displays 3D graphics in
thousands and millions of colors. When you use 256 colors,
there are too few colors to display complex 3D textures, so 3D
acceleration is not supported.
You can use the 3D Memory Monitor to see how memory on
your RADEON 7000 MAC EDITION is allocated when displaying
3D graphics. This allows you to optimize 3D performance.
The 3D Memory Monitor is only supported in Mac OS 9.

Identify Displays
If you have more than one display connected to your computer,
you can identify and configure each display. The ATI Displays
control panel identifies all the displays connected to your
computer, but only configures displays that are connected to
ATI cards.
If you are using multiple monitors and using one display with
the built-in video, or a non-ATI video card, a generic video card
icon is displayed in the ATI Displays control panel. You cannot
make any changes to the generic video card using ATI Displays.
Display Details
The Details window gives you information about specific
software components needed to enable each of RADEON 7000
MAC EDITION’s features. Check the Details window to
determine the files and version numbers of the software
components installed in your System Folder during the
installation process. Using the pull-down menu, the Details
window also lists the Mac OS multimedia software required for
RADEON 7000 MAC EDITION, such as QuickDraw 3D and
OpenGL.
