It was just a generic $39 SIS 315 with 64Meg of ram. Just used a
modeline I found for 1920x1080i and it worked out of the box without
using the modified SIS driver I saw mentioned elsewhere. I plays video
just fine. I went from 24 bit to 16 bit because the interface
(graphics) were drawing a little sluggish. I was using the built in
Intel Extreme2 but could not get it to even load any modelines, like
the driver was ignoring them. The Intel chip is supposed to do
interlace, it was really fast, the screensaver would bounce around with
no problems. With the SIS the screen saver would chug along slowly. I
don't know if it is the ram size, or chip speed, driver or just because
I went from 800x600 to 1920x1080 and that is alot of mem to push
around. I am thinking about getting the Xabre 400 based on the SIS
chips. I just could not wait anymore for nvidia to fix the interlace in
the driver.<br>

Please tell me more. What card did you buy? Where did you get it? How
much did it cost? What driver are you using? What CPU are you using and
how smooth is the video at 1920x1080i?
Thanks,
John
