Macintosh computer. It includes 32MB of DDR memory for

fast 32-bit true color 3D graphics. Flexible dual-display support

for multiple combinations of CRT monitors, TVs and video

devices is included. Your new graphics accelerator provides:

• Flexible dual-display support enabling many combinations

utilizing the VGA, DVI-I, and TV connectors

• OpenGL®and QuickDraw 3D accelerator providing

superior 3D rendering performance and advanced imaging

and filtering techniques

• QuickTime playback accelerator for full screen, full

motion, TV quality video

• DVI-I support for digital flat panels

• TV-Out support via S-Video connector

The easy-to-access, easy-to-use ATI Config Menu (available

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

style digital flat panel, or TV

• QuickTime 5.0 (earlier versions are NOT supported)

• Minimum 32MB of system memory required for Mac OS 9

Mac OS X

OpenGL 1.2.2 or higher is required to obtain full 3D graphics

functionality in Mac OS 9 applications. OpenGL 1.2.2 is only

available from Apple as part of Mac OS 9.2.1.

Apple analog monitors without a VGA connector must use a

third party adapter to connect to the RADEON 7000 MAC

Multimedia Features

Your RADEON 7000 MAC EDITION turns your Mac

computer into a 3D and 2D graphics powerhouse. You can use

your new graphics accelerator card to do the following:

• Enjoy true-color 32-bit 2D or 3D graphics up to 2048x1536

• Watch full screen, full motion, TV-quality video using

QuickTime playback acceleration

• Output your Mac’s display to a digital flat panel

• Output your Mac’s display to your TV

The following information describes these new features in more

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.

ATI Displays Control Panel For Mac OS 9

The ATI Displays control panel provides access to the advanced

3D features that RADEON 7000 MAC EDITION has to offer.

To open the ATI Displays control panel, choose Control Panels

from the Apple menu, then choose ATI Displays, or choose ATI

Displays from the ATI Config Menu from the menu bar.

For detailed instructions on how to set up and use these features,

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.
