Today, ATI is announcing its entry into the market of enthusiast orientated chipsets for AMD users with the launch of its CrossFire Xpress 3200 platform. Over the last year, ATI has made a pretty big entrance into the chipset market as a major contender with market share increasing three-fold over that time period. That must've been helped by Intel's decision to choose ATI's Radeon Xpress 200M chipset for its entry-level integrated graphics motherboard, along with the launch of RD480, CrossFire and the Radeon X1000-series video cards.

The new chipset, codenamed RD580, is said to deliver the world's best gaming performance, best overclocking capabilities and unparalleled stability.
