ATI Rage Mobility-M3: specs and benchmarks
Summary
ATI started Rage Mobility-M3 sales 1 October 1999. This is a laptop graphics card based on a Rage 4 architecture and made with 250 nm manufacturing process. It is primarily aimed at gamers. 8 MB of SDR memory clocked at 0.11 GHz are supplied, and together with 64 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 840.0 MB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is a graphics card attached via AGP 2x interface.
