Intel killed 4X AGP Pro video card. If 4XAGP Pro was one of compelling reasons for RDRAM, what does that say about RDRAM.

Intel pulls plug on 754 graphics chip
By Mark Hachman

July 23, 1999
Electronic Buyers' News
Intel Corp. confirmed online reports that it has canceled its Intel 754 graphics chip, a device that analysts had termed a "place holder" in its product line.
"Yes, Intel has canceled plans for the Intel 754 graphics accelerator," said an Intel spokesman here. "Our goal is to provide quality solutions for the mainstream PC segments and the recently announced Intel 752 addresses those users needs. Intel will use the freed-up resources to align graphics solutions with early 2000 PC platform requirements."

The Intel 752, which was announced in late April, will serve as Intel's sole discrete graphics chip until at least the end of the year. The spokesman said Intel is working with customers to minimize the cancellation's impact.
