ATi Radeon X1K Graphics Launched, Benchmarked

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the pixels-are-good dept.

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?"

    Why do naming schemes suck, anymore??

    X1000? I thought the "X" in "X800" was there because those video cards were the generation after "9800" and "9700"... Whats next, OSX11?

    Intel, AMD, ATI, nVidia... Mazda... they're all driving me nuts with their product naming schemes, lately...
