| Very impressive improvement with VDI copy bloc (vro_pyfm()), I suppose driver use now MMX 68080 instructions ?! Very good

| Salut Olivier, The VDI driver was so far optimized with some handwritten 68K ASM.
The driver is not yet optimized with AMMX. (this is todo)
The V4 68080 CPU and Cache controller also boosts the speed somewhat.

| This is very nice to see this result, slow video driver and people think computer is slow even if it is fast, this is really good news, the team do very great job. I'm very impatient to use V4 standalone to continue my small atari software on it.
Just a question what is the maximum resolution we can use with this driver? Thanks for your job. Olivier

| Nice,
what exectly does the 3d OpenGL benchmark run here?

| it's call of very long list of glVertex3f() and glColor3f() with rotation and several display option. It run tinygl, with no optimization except FPU, I don't know wich version of driver is used (68881, 68020-60 or 68040). If 68080 transcendent functions such sin() and cos()can be used, I think 68881 driver should be faster.

The HW of the SAGA resolution is freely programmable.
Typical resolution range often from
320x240, 640x480, 960x540, over 1280x720, up to 1920x1080

| @Olivier Currentely EmuTOS for V4 propose to the user, at boot, a selection of predefined screenmodes. 
Those screenmodes are all 16bits depth, hardcoded in EmuTOS. That said, the V4 can virtually accepts any valid resolutions (and depths from 8bits to 32bits), it is only a matter of registers initialization (such as PLL, and valid modelines). On AmigaOS, there is some tool to let the user 'create' his owns screenmodes, only there is 2 limits : - The user monitor/tv capabilities,
- The maximum bandwidth of the Vampire, Dont expect anything bigger than 1080p, but from 320x200 to 1080p, all resolutions are virtually possible. Such tool could be developped also for FreeMiNT (GUI + config file + anti-brick shortkey at boot to switch back to standard VESA 640x480 in case the monitor cant display some custom res).

| Hello Under Freemint the issue is AES and application should be restart to work. Perhaps for AES it's not need for all AES but I think most application should be restart to work, I could work on MyAES to support this but probably most application will not work as they should after resolution change. Do GUI is not an issue, I could do it. Olivier Philippe Flype wrote:

EmuTOS mentiones Amitari ;) Just right after Jahtari . So Atari name lives on!

| Impressive performance. I haven't seen the Standalone, how expandable will it be ? pci cards for things like scsi ?

Yes, please use PCI-X 64bit cards for SCSI upgrades. ;)This is how the V4 SA looks like:
 V4 keypoints * Apollo 68080 CPU (up to ~ 1000MHz 68030 / 500MHz 68040 / 250MHz 68060) * 512 MB DDR3 Memory
* Dual Flash Chips
* FastKick
* SAGA GFX Core : Truecolor DIGITAL VIDEO OUT
* FastIDE/CompactFlash Controller 13MB/sec
* SDcard for Data exchange
* USB
* RJ45 100BaseTX Ethernet
* 3 Internal Expansion ports (e.g. Wifi Module)

| PCI-X cards are probably not supported by the drivers. Only a small-ish number of PCI cards are supported on the Atari.

The Vampire has no PCI, thought you realize it that it was an joke... there are just 3 Exp. Ports what can be used but not set

Seems smileys dont work as good as they used to do :)
Since OS3/Atari drivers exists for various PCI devices, hope
some V5,V6 ... could have at least one, even "small factor m68k
power sys" momentum might be lost. Would love to see some full ATX Vamp board with mem slots, built in Wi Fi, and PCI and even PCI-X slot, so new drivers could be developed or backported, as well as e.g. old Radeons, Vodoos and Sound Blasters used. Just as the future dream, standalone is so far, so good, so great!

Don't understand I checked the 2 links and they are ok
 Notice CT60 reference used is 8 bit interleaved format, very slow :-(
Opengl test in memory (independant from video format) V4 is 17% faster.

| PDF file updated, there is no difference between 68040 and 68881 addition FPU test, result are same, I'm checking in Kronos the bug of display or of load. There is something wrong on this point.
