ATI Graphics Ultra Pro VLB

The Graphics Ultra Pro VLB was a high-end graphics card by ATI, launched in January 1993. Built on the 700 nm process, and based on the Mach32 graphics processor, in its Mach32-03 variant, the card does not support DirectX. Since Graphics Ultra Pro VLB does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. The Mach32 graphics processor is a relatively small chip with a die area of only 90 mm². It features 1 pixel shader and 0 vertex shaders, 0 texture mapping units, and 1 ROP. Due to the lack of unified shaders you will not be able to run recent games at all (which require unified shader/DX10+ support). ATI has paired 1 MB VRAM memory with the Graphics Ultra Pro VLB, which are connected using a 64-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 10 MHz, memory is running at 10 MHz.

Being a single-slot card, its power draw is not exactly known. Display outputs include: 1x VGA. Graphics Ultra Pro VLB is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI interface. Its price at launch was 499 US Dollars.
