Drauf sitzt der Cirrus Logic CL-GD5428, einer der verbreitetsten Grafikchips der 486er-Zeit. Der Chip bringt RAMDAC und Taktgenerator gleich mit und beschleunigt Windows mit BitBLT und Hardware-Mauszeiger. Mit 1 MB Videospeicher schafft die Karte 1024\u00d7768 in 256 Farben oder 640\u00d7480 in True Color. \u00dcber den 32 Bit breiten VLB ist sie deutlich flotter als jede ISA-Karte und damit genau das Richtige f\u00fcr einen 486er, in dem Doom und Windows 3.11 laufen sollen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Was ist ein Preview?<\/strong> Hier zeige ich kurz Hardware, die ich entdeckt, aber noch nicht genauer angeschaut habe. So behalte ich den \u00dcberblick und ihr seht schon vorab, was kommt. Sobald ich dazu komme, ersetzt ein ausf\u00fchrlicher Beitrag das Preview.
