Tyan has posted picture's and details of their new Tachyon G9700 Pro graphics card. The 'report' on Xbitlabs and TheInquirer is spinning the rumour mill as no official announcement regarding the card has been made. It is not officially available yet. Here's a byte about it.
The Tachyon G9700 Pro is equipped with on-board hardware monitoring (fan, voltage, temperature, etc.), a specially developed driver for overclockers that will allow end-users to clock their VPUs at up to astonishing 400MHz core-speed [as reported by the Inquirer]. Tyan's designers have ordered a special an efficient heatsink at Thermaltake to cool the graphics card down. What is also very interesting is that Tyan [is said to] utilise the new revision of ATI's PCB design - the product now works on all AGP 8x supporting platforms, unlike some other graphics cards powered by the Radeon 9700 Pro.
