When I talked with the guy from Elbox at an Amiga show he promised 21 MB/sec.
- the Cybervision PPC currently reaches around 18-20 MB/sec. - so we can
assume - assuming he told the truth - that the busspeed will be around the
same like for CybervisionPPC. But busspeed is not the real bottleneck
currently for 3D applications. Chip-Fillrate (of the Permedia 2 Boards) is.
And there the Mediator will probably mean a big improvement. A Voodoo 3 is
WAYS faster than a Permedia 2 there.
