AMD's ATI Hybrid CrossFire Sneak Peek Exclusive
,----[ Quote ]
| We have seen AMD’s ATI Hybrid CrossFire technology working and have even
| played today’s latest games on it and played them more smoothly than
| expected. The upcoming RS780 motherboard IGP and RV620 GPU look to be a great
| pair when it comes to low-end gaming rigs. We are expecting to see these
| parts come to market in Q1’08 with the Hybrid CrossFire technology to be
| introduced in “the first half of 2008.” This likely does not mean much to me
| and you right now, but I am hoping that we see a huge success in the low end
| Hybrid arenas because I truly believe it will help usher in a new way that
| multi-video card gaming is handled both in terms of power conservation and
| ease of use in the enthusiast’s system.

| Whether you are using a Radeon X300 purchased a few years ago or the Radeon
| X1950PRO, the 8.41 driver is noticeably faster. How much faster? In many
| cases it is about 50% faster while in some configurations it may go as high
| as 90% or more. In fact, in some benchmarks the Mobility Radeon X300 was over
| 10x faster!
