Moore Threads MTT S30 Features AV1 Decode Acceleration, Supports Direct3D API
More details are emerging of the elusive Moore Threads MTT S30 entry-level graphics card, which was released earlier this week. VideoCardz reports that the GPU features hardware-accelerated decoding of AV1, besides H.265 and H.264, which should cover all the bases for its use as a streaming content consumption GPU. The card features an HDMI 2.0 port that supports 4K Ultra HD up to 60 Hz. The D-Sub connector tops out at 1920 x 1200. Most Windows-based media applications use Direct3D or DXVA codepaths for accelerated video decode, and so the GPU has some form of DirectX API support, although we still don't know up to which version that is. It also supports OpenGL, which should come in handy with certain Adobe applications that use GL contexts to draw their workspaces. The source also reports a rather attractive retail price of just RMB ¥399, or about USD $55.
