Intergraph Announces New Wahoo Technology, Zx10 Workstation

Intergraph has announced its new Wahoo Technology with Streaming Multiport Architecture, a systems architecture specifically engineered to dramatically improve both systems throughput and performance of the 2D/3D graphics pipeline. This performance is extended throughout Intergraph's new Zx hardware product line, with delivery of the Wahoo Technology first in the Zx10 ViZual Workstation, also announced today and available December 20.

The Zx10 ViZual Workstation, as an NT-based workstation offers 64-bit PCI buses, Intel Pentium III processors at speeds of 733/133 MHz, up to 8 GB of PC133 ECC SDRAM and Intense3D's Wildcat 4110 VIO 3D Graphics card. The Zx10 is targeted at creative and technical professionals in the digital media, MCAD, publishing and prepress, and visual simulation markets who use software for applications such as 3D animation, high-definition digital video, real-time visual simulation, complex 3D modeling, and complex data analysis.

Intergraph, competing directly with Intel's 810 and BX chipsets, says its Wahoo Technology features a unique Streaming Multiport Architecture that supports the latest Pentium III and Pentium III Xeon processors with 133 MHz frontside bus, more memory, higher memory performance, and higher I/O bandwidths. Wahoo Technology extends throughout the graphics pipeline, providing optimal utilization of the graphics port and processor frontside bus to deliver high graphics performance. This architecture enables a balanced system that utilizes its processors, memory, graphics, and I/O subsystems to deliver 5 GB/sec system bandwidth.
