Ever since ATI has been acquired by AMD, a lot of speculation has gone on concerning its future and its product range. For ATI though, it has been business as usual. In September they introduced their latest batch of the graphical lines with the launch of the flagship model Radeon X1950XTX.
In recent times Nvidia’s G80 chipset had overtaken ATI on every front, but the Radeon 1950XTX continued to remain competitive. In our recent G80 review, the Radeon 1950XTX performed admirably and quite easily kept up with Nvidia’s previous generation product—the GeForce 7950 GX2. Asus’s version of the Radeon 1950XTX is actually a reference card and there has been no change from ATI’s reference card with Clock speeds and memory speeds remaining the same. The HSF has also remained untouched.
