STB Message-ID: <1991Jun15.022342.209@colorado.edu> Date: 15 Jun 91 02:23:42 GMT Sender: news@colorado.edu (The Daily Planet) Organization: University of Colorado, Boulder Lines: 14 Originator: chuj@horton.Colorado.EDU Nntp-Posting-Host: horton.colorado.edu I just tried my new Trident SVGA 1MB card against my 1 year old STB POWERGRAPH 1 MB card, the machine used is a 486-33, application was POWER METER (ver. ?). The TRIDENT LOST, the most difference in the test was the FILL which was 3 seconds apart. PMUs, Trident was behind by about 20 PMU from the STB. I use the 640x480 16 color mode which was the highest rez for the test. I did this to decide where the card was going to be placed, the Trident is now in my 286-16 and the STB will remain in the 486-33. I had also problems before with the TRIDENT conflicting with the MICROSCIENCE 122meg RLL (customers machine). If you are deciding a STB or TRIDENT pick the STB card, never had any problems with it.
