Rage 128 VR: specs and benchmarks

Summary

ATI started Rage 128 VR sales 1 August 1998. This is desktop card based on 250 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at gamers. 32 MB of SDR memory clocked at 0.13 GHz are supplied, and together with 64 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 1 GB/s.

Compatibility-wise, this is a single-slot graphics card attached via AGP 2x interface.
