Hercules 3D Prophet FDX 8500 LE 64MB
3D Prophet FDX 8500 LE is the essential weapon for maximizing pleasure in the
latest 3D games. Featuring the new generation ATI RADEON™ 8500LE chipset,
combined with 64MB DDR RAM and a new Fully DirectX8.1 engine, it offers unparalleled
innovation and potent graphics acceleration. In 3D games this results in ultra-high
frame rates, even in geometrically heavy scenes, with incredibly realistic 3D
characters featuring real-body animations and human skinning.
