Although ATI’s had no problem competing closely with NVIDIA on the high-end of the 3D graphics market for the past six months, for whatever reason they haven’t had as much success capturing sales in the mainstream segment of the market over the same time period. In fact, some might argue that ATI’s mainstream lineup hasn’t been all that exciting since the Radeon 9500/9600 era a few years ago. Looking back over ATI’s last few mainstream releases, a case can certainly be made in favor of this argument for the most part. Let’s take a quick look down memory lane shall we?
