 | | The Radeon X300: PCI Express on a budget |
|
TechReport
has posted
a preview of ATI's PCI-E family which includes Radeon X800, X600, and X300
series graphics products:
Despite claims that its X800 architecture scales down to eight- and four-pipe designs, the low end of ATI's PCI Express Radeon X-series is dominated by last year's technology. Not that there's anything wrong with last year's technology, though. The X600 and X300's RV360 roots leverage a proven rendering pipeline, full 24 bits of pixel shader precision, and the most gorgeous antialiasing around.
Other than PCI Express support and a slight memory clock boost for the XT, the X600 line doesn't offer much over ATI's existing Radeon 9600 series products. However, the X300 is a significant improvement over ATI's previous value workhorse, the DirectX 8-class Radeon 9200 series. ATI expects the Radeon X300s to be twice as fast as the 9200s, which is a pretty significant leap when you add DirectX 9-class shaders to the equation

You all seem to hate me only because my username threatens you. So i may as well start things off. *YAWN* The X300's is going to be 2x faster than the 9200's??? WOW, that's not hard! :-) |

| Comments from JK | posted - 07:13 PM CEST - Jun,02 2004 | | i don't care what card people get, all i care about is playing my games.
When i got a Geforce4 Ti4800SE, i had alot of problems with the games i played and so i got a ATI Radeon 9800Pro and i don't get any problems at all.
The only trouble i get is if it is OS related, which is not common.
I wish MS would make Win9x games work on XP. (ie. Tie Fighter 95) (WITH Direct3D working.) |

| Comments from hanzo | posted - 04:42 AM CEST - Jun,03 2004 | | i had an nvidia 4200. i had a lot of problem. so i bought ati 9600 pro. still a lot of problem. then i sell my macintosh and buy a pc. games works okay now. so i never buy nvidia again. |

| Comments from geno | posted - 07:04 AM CEST - Jun,03 2004 | | my ti4200 has been faithfull for over a year so far, no problems anywhere other then with a few mobo drivers. Though i see ATI's performing better then nvidia's, nvidia's cards are cheaper. Maybe my next card will be a ATI just to see if it really makes that much of a friggin difference. |

| Comments from bill | posted - 03:02 PM CEST - Jun,03 2004 | | you nvidiots still think u da best. ATI is the king now. |
|
| Comments from xxxx | posted - 04:41 PM CEST - Jun,04 2004 | | geno. no it doesn't. ur listening to ati people that no nothing else but what their daddies bought them. ur free to do what u want with ur money. but u will put urself in world of 50/50 with games. remember, games don't say made for ati, they "always" say nvidia. if that doesn't say enough(no its not just marketing) then i fear u just want to blow money. @hanzo, that's really good logic you stupid ass smacktard. i have problem with my 4200, i replace with 9600 still proble, sell mac and buy pc and never buy nvidia. ur a F_cking moron. i say, bring ur pc back and if they ask you why, say ur too f_cking stupid to own one. |
