Xbitlabs has some nice writeup from the recently introduce S27 card from VIA.
http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/video/display/s3-chrome-s27.html
Its a long review, I think Xbitlab can cut some of the useless test like individual analysis of 3dmark games.
The performace is suprisingly good, its able to match up to 6600 in some cases, whereas in other it lags behind the 6200. The core is clocked at 700 mhz the highest for any gfx card till date. The drawback is no support for FSAA other then Super sampling which has a huge performance impact. Nevertheless its a good step forward for S3 from its previous days, lets hope in time we have a worthy competitor to ATI & Nvidia.
