GeForce2 Ti, redefines graphics for mainstream computers, delivering 1 billion pixels/sec. rendering
power and producing an amazing 6.4GB/sec. of bandwidth. The GeForce2Ti provides consumers with
unprecedented visual experiences at mainstream price points.
Transform and Lighting (T&L) are two very mathematically intense processes. Combined, T&L radically
enhance photo-realism to create worlds that come alive on your screen. NVIDIAGPUs use separate T&L
engines so that each can run at maximum efficiency.
The NVIDIA ShadingRasterizer(NSR) combined with the blazing fill rate of an NVIDIA GPU, delivers
incomparable resolution and accuracy. Complex scenes are now rich with detail. Features such as per-
pixel bump mapping can be utilized to a more dramatic visual effect.
NVIDIA's high-definition video processor covers the most expensive part of HDTV by transforming your
computer into the optimal home entertainment system.
