			Note that the STMicro Kyro and S3 Savage 2000 cannot compete with ATI/Nvidia, but they are listed here for their significance. The Savage 2000 was the last video card S3 released (its subsequent failure was a major contributor to S3's bankruptcy). The STMicro Kyro was an interesting budget solution that used Tile Rendering. The Voodoo 5 6000 was never publicly released, but those fortunate enough to have working samples have indicated it performed well in legacy titles.

New page

The last year of the twentieth century brought about the Pentium 4 towards the end of the year. Though clocked at an impressive 1.5 GHz, it struggled to perform against high end Pentium III's and the Athlon Thunderbird. Also, this was perhaps the last year that there were multiple GPU contenders.
