It was the card that could be considered the come back of Matrox, but it fell short, even though it offered the best Anti Aliasing quality of it's time, many issues with the GPU hold it back from it's potential like poor drivers, no occlusion technology, low GPU core speed and a bad combination of texture pipelines and pixel pipelines.
