ATI's Athlon 64 Chipset with Integrated Graphics

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the everybody's-doin'-it dept.

EconolineCrush writes "ATI has released the first Athlon 64 chipset with DirectX 9-class integrated graphics and PCI Express. The Tech Report has an in-depth review of the Radeon Xpress 200 that highlights the chipset's impressive performance and surprisingly competent integrated graphics. It looks like the Radeon Xpress 200 could be the missing link that helps AMD crack Intel's dominance of the consumer and corporate desktop markets."

    I can feel some kind of electromagnetic field emanating from Fry's and pulling my credit card in that general direction...

    Which GNU/Linux and especially BSD distros are ready to take advantage of the full power of the AMD hardware offerings these days?

    Wow... You got:
    *First post
    *The "been waiting for this" jaded thing going on
    *The FreeBSD/weirdass OS nobody uses reference
    *The word "proprietary"
    *A reference to something about nforce thats obviously big news in everybodys world but mine
    *The notion that you could actually spot the difference between two graphics cards using the same resolution

    If I had modpoints I'd mod you through the roof, but I see you already have a well-deserved "Insightful".

    Yes, but none of it ever works at the slightest sign of trouble.

    Thats because the enterprise ran windows for star ships.
