The Soldier of Fortune 2 tournament will be played on top-of-the-line Alienware PC systems, driven by AMD processors, and equipped with new graphics hardware powered by the Matrox Parhelia-512 graphics chipset, displayed on Viewsonic monitors with UPS back-up provided by CyberPower.
So the winner of the tournament next week will get an alpha board of Parhelia512 ???
or will it be a retail shelf product ? i thought that parhelia won`t be available for another month .....

Interesting on the parhelia is that
it has 4 vertex shaders and 4 pipelines
a GF4 has only 2 VS and 4 pipelines so what I am thinking is that the GF4 can only use 50% of the vertex shader per pipeline
