ATi Radeon X1K Graphics Launched, Benchmarked

MojoDog writes "ATi has officially launched their all new Radeon X1000 family of 3D Graphics cards this morning and a full showcase with benchmarks of the entire line-up can be found at HotHardware. What may or may not be surprising to you, is the fact that the new high-end flagship X1800 is still a 16 pixel pipe GPU but now running at a blistering 625MHz. Is it fast enough to catch NVIDIA's 24 pipe GeForce 7800 GTX?"

    But at least they all have a long way to go to catch up to Motorola ^_^

    I can't wait for some XTRM GRFX CRD.....(suddenly disturbed by the likelyhood of such blasphemy)

    They don't have to make sense...

    Geforce
    Geforce 2
    Geforce 3
    Geforce 4Ti
    Geforce 5600
    ...
    OR...
    Windows 3.1
    Windows 95
    Windows 98
    Windows 2000
    Windows ME
    Windows XP
    Windows Vista

    I'm simply trying to point out that nothing makes sense in the computer industry anymore... Hell my Dell Dimension 8100 PC is crappier than my Dell Dimension 4600. Explain that to me.

    It does look like hot hardware to me - I think this is what the 'blistering' refers to.

    Just make sure your PC has adequate cooling and is kept away from flammable items!
