ASUS Splendid MA3850M - modular graphics card with stand-alone color processor
Written by Andreas G 07 May 2008
f you remember, we had a couple of stories about a concept card from ASUS that had three RV670 cores, where each core was on a separate MXM module attached to a mother card. It worked as a single card, alas it was just a concept even though it is the current world record holder for single cards in 3DMark 03. However it seems that EAH3850 Trinity has spawned a follower, which is much more than just a concept.
ASUS Splendid MA3850M is also based on a mobile version of the RV670 core, which makes it more power efficient than other Radeon HD 3850 cards on the market. It's also shorter than most other cards, but instead takes up two slots. Splendid MA3850M also sports another feature which makes it unique today. ASUS has equipped it with the world's first stand-alone color processor, dubbed Splendid.
The color processor is intended to improve image quality without increased CPU load. The processor sports a 7-bit color enhancement, 12-bit gamma correction, real-time 2D peaking and dynamic contrast engine. It automatically selects the best possible display mode depending on what you're doing – e.g. Photo Mode, Video Mode, or Game Mode.
The RV670 core is clocked at 668MHz and the 512MB GDDR3 memory at 1.65GHz. It has two DVI connectors (only one goes through the Splendid processor) and one TV out.
