Posted by timothy on from the portable-graphics dept.

Mike Bouma writes "AnandTech has reviewed ATI's latest mobile graphics solution. According to the reviewer this small and energy efficient chip is the new king when it comes to mobile graphic chips for Notebooks. Also John Carmack is apparently very positive about the chip and also stated that Doom 3 will be able to run smoothly with this new Radeon chip."

  1. Wow, just think of the implications by Hott+of+the+World · · Score: 0, Redundant

    You can play Doom 3 and cook an egg at the same time!

    but seriously, how hot is this desktop replacement gonna get?

  2. ATI about more than just games by AndyChrist · · Score: 1, Redundant

    ATI is also about PORN. That new video smoothing feature sounds sweet.

    They've given us some nice features for notebooks for a while now...that anti-aliased resizing on non-native resolutions, for one. Dunno if Nvidea et al eventually got round to matching that one. But ATI had it first by a long shot.

  3. It's not the card it's the drivers by Phuck+Ewe · · Score: 0, Redundant

    My experience with ATI was such it was a curse. I bought once an ATI Radeon 64Mb ViVo. The drivers sucked so bad, Counter-Strike would lag it's ass off. I had a good puter, Dooal P3 1.0ghz and 1Gb Ram. The moment I had the opportunity to change back to Nvidia I got a GF3 Ti500 and it runs Sweet! Dude I am never going back to ATI, I don't care Doom 3 runs pretty in pink. If their drivers suck they SUCK! That is why NVidia is and will be always my favorites (at least until their drivers suck too...)
