GECUBE Introduces the World's First Radeon X1000 AGP Series Graphics
Cards
Taipei, Taiwan, December 20, 2005--Info-Tek Corporation, the major
supplier of the world's leading graphics card brand GECUBET, today
announced the world's first AGP RADEON X1000 Series Graphics products
with the launch of the RADEONR X1300 and RADEONR X1600 graphics cards.

The simultaneous release of the GECUBE RADEONR X1300 and GECUBE RADEONR
X1600 deliver the latest generation of high performance graphics cards
to users of AGP based systems allowing them to easily upgrade without
replacing other key PC components such as motherboards. Both cards
possess 256MB of DDR2 memory which enhances game visuals and real-time
responsiveness, this coupled with extremely realistic colours at higher
resolutions (1920x1440 and 2048x1536) give users a real gaming
experience in an often surreal gaming world.

The GECUBE RADEON X1000 AGP series all support Avivo technology. An
unprecedented 10 bit processor via Avivo's display engine enhances the
quality of video capture and playback delivering 64 times the number of
colours currently available in PCs.

The GECUBE RADEON X1000 AGP series also support ultra-threading
technology and Shader Model 3.0, which groups together brand new pixel
and vertex shaders in order to create accurate lighting and shading,
drastically improving the 3D gaming experience.

"Our main goal is to fulfill all of our gaming customers' desires," said
Larry Yeo, General Manager of Info-Tek's Multimedia Business Unit.
"Because the AGP interface is still widely used, Info-Tek will continue
to support the standard by developing cutting edge graphics cards. For
gamers seeking the perfect gaming environment, the GECUBE RADEON X1000
AGP series is an extremely cost-effective upgrade that delivers stunning
performance to their systems without a major overhaul."
