ATI's Radeon X800 XL Preview

**MIG-31** · Jan 6, 2005, 09:01 PM

ATI's recent launch of its premier R480 graphics processor brought with it a variant on a different process technology, with all the same features, to satisfy lower-cost markets. Cheaper to produce, R430 is a native PCI Express part like R480, fabricated on TSMC's 110nm node. R430 therefore allows ATI to bring all the power of its R4xx range to many more price points on PCI Express, continuing ATI's push towards that interface completely across the board.

I was looking for a 6800 GT AGP but now i really changed my mind

If the card come in a few month and the rialto is working, i will stay forever on ATI side and the X800XL will join my Radeon 7500 and 9700Pro
