Radeon X1900 XTX and CrossFire Review

Look back at Far Cry, the Canals09 level of Half-Life 2, FEAR and Call of Duty 2; the wins there aren't the work of any driver hacks or fancy work-arounds. The 48 pixel pipes in the X1900 architecture are hard at work in those tests and ATI's decision to beef them up in such a considerable way really is paying off.

First Looks from Taiwan ATI Radeon X1900XTX 512MB

The R580 is a refresh version of the R520 GPU (X1800 series) and comes under the name of the X1900 series; specifically we are testing the most high-end X1900XTX 512MB today.

That's not to say the performance increases at the same clocks as R520 are invisible. Clearly they're not without increases, especially at the higher resolutions, of up to 30% in the games we tested, clock-for-clock.

Now this is a good thing considering almost all games released of late use Pixel Shaders

ATI X1900XT Preview

Both ATI and NVIDIA seem to have worked something out with regards to their dual card solutions that allow for asynchronous clockspeeds on the two different cards (NVIDIA enabled this a few driver revisions ago). The X1900 CrossFire will allow for resolutions up to 2560x1600 @ 72Hz.

The flagship X1900XTX is clocked at 650 MHz for the core and 1.55 GHz for the memory, while the X1900XT is clocked just slightly slower at 625 MHz for the core and 1.45 GHz for the memory.

ATI's Radeon X1900 Video Card Series

For those wondering X1800XT was clocked at 625MHz core, and 1.5GHz memory. ItÂ’s difficult to tell the differences between the new card and the old card on the outside, with the only noticeable differences being the number of mosfets next to the long red heat sink toward the end of the board...

ATI X1900 CrossFire

However, as ATI would have had two teams working on new products, itÂ’s likely that the R580 team were simply on-time, whereas the R520 team, were very late. Even more remarkably it seems as though ATI hasnÂ’t entirely paper launched and its cards should be available to buy as you read this.

This is where things change.
