What about improved AGA? What about 800x600, 72Hz on your low end Amiga? What about this beeing news 1992. Makes your dreaming doesn't it?
Find out what I'm talking about. Was searching for the memory bandwidth of AGA and found this on google. A friend was complaing about a few new radeons having 128-bit memory access so I wanted to show him something to compare with.

In reply to Comment 3 (itix):
Well, the chipset was meant to support 1024x768 and 1280x1024 in the higher end configurations.

PC graphics card blitters have been pretty basic for the most part. Fast, yes. Functional ... not as much as even the OCS blitter.

Most PCs in 1996/1997 were being run at 800x600 by their owners, in 24-bit even in 1997. However this AAA chipset would probably have emerged in 1995. It would have been a little ahead, resolution wise, and way ahead in terms of functionality and flexibility.
