Review By Techreport

PC GRAPHICS TECHNOLOGY HAS EARNED itself a reputation as a fast-moving locus of innovation, and that rep is certainly well deserved. Still, the much-ballyhooed talk of six-month product cycles and the breakneck pace of change is a little bit overheated. About 25% of everything that happens in PC graphics involves truly novel innovations, such as new GPU microarchitectures with features never seen before. The rest is mostly just dance remixes

Review By Firingsquad

The Radeon X1600 XT had pretty good specs on paper: ATI outfitted its RV530 GPU with 12 pixel shaders and it was clocked at 590MHz core. Running alongside the GPU was a speedy memory subsystem clocked at a blazing 690MHz, and the board was available in a wide variety of configurations (including AGP), but in performance tests it just couldn’t keep up with its initial competitor, the GeForce 6800 GS from NVIDIA..

Today, however, ATI is announcing five new products targeting virtually every segment of the graphics market.

As has pretty much been the case throughout the current generation of 3D cards, ATI and Nvidia’s product have been very similar in 3D performance, at least in single-chip card performance. ATI has held a slight edge in DirectX games (most titles), and Nvidia has won on OpenGL-based titles (Doom 3, Quake 4, Prey), but neither was ahead enough to really claim outright dominance. And we can’t say that ATI blows Nvidia out of the water now, but we do have to hand it the overall edge for its gains on Quake 4 and, by extension, OpenGL. We also have to thank our colleague Sarju Shah at GameSpot for providing us with the benchmarks this time around. You can check out his analysis of the card here.
