Quiet videocards always make the best options for a HTPC, and the S3 Chrome S27 videocard certainly gets a few marks on this front.

3DMark05 results from the S3 Chrome S27 are pretty good
bearing in mind its GPU class and cost. It scores in the GeForce 6600GT/Radeon
X700 Pro territory. Not bad for a sub $100 CDN videocard.
3DMark06 is the worldwide standard in advanced 3D game
performance benchmarking. A fundamental tool for every company in the PC
industry as well as PC users and gamers, 3DMark06 uses advanced real-time 3D
game workloads to measure PC performance using a suite of DirectX 9 3D graphics
tests, CPU tests, and 3D feature tests. 3DMark06 tests include all new HDR/SM3.0
graphics tests, SM2.0 graphics tests, AI and physics driven single and multiple
cores or processor CPU tests and a collection of comprehensive feature tests to
reliably measure next generation gaming performance
today.

The S3 Chrome S27 does not support Shader Model 3.0, and
this is why SM3.0 tests results are not included. The S3 videocard scores worse
than the GeForce 6600GT here, but outperforms the Radeon X700 Pro.
