Legit Reviews writes about its find at CTIA Wireless 2006

NVIDIA had their latest mobile graphics processor, the GoForce 5500, running a number of heavy 3d applications on an ARM11 development platform powered by one of Freescale’s i.MX31 applications processors . NVIDIA was able to run their GoForce 5500 on this platform and got Quake III Arena running between 28-35 frames per second at a VGA resolution of 1024×786. NVIDIA informed us if they ran the demo in XGA that the frames per second would decrease to around ~22FPS

    29 Apr 2006 ~ 2:15pm Enverex That quote doesn't make much sense. VGA is 640x480, SVGA is 800x600, XGA is 1024x768, there's no such thing as "a VGA resolution of 1024x768". Thus the last sentence doesn't make any sense either as they are already running it at XGA.

    Anyways, good news for people like me that want power like that in a tiny package. That sounds really good to be honest as I doubt in a PDA or whatever you're not going to want anything like Quake 3 or better for normal uses (considering the screen size and 1024x768 would also be excessive for the size of a normal PDA screen size). But yeah, nice.

Howdy, Stranger!
