The Rage 128 VR PCI was a graphics card by ATI, launched on August 1st, 1998. Built on the 250 nm process, and based on the Rage 128 graphics processor, in its Rage 128 VR variant, the card supports DirectX 6.0. Since Rage 128 VR PCI does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. The Rage 128 graphics processor is a relatively small chip with a die area of only 89 mm² and 8 million transistors. It features 2 pixel shaders and 0 vertex shaders, 2 texture mapping units, and 2 ROPs. 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 32 MB DDR memory with the Rage 128 VR PCI, which are connected using a 64-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 80 MHz, memory is running at 125 MHz.
Being a single-slot card, the ATI Rage 128 VR PCI does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is not exactly known. Display outputs include: 1x VGA. Rage 128 VR PCI is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI interface.
