160 million transistors on 0.13 micron low-k fabrication process. It has approximately double the transistor count compared to the Radeon 9800 XT but actually still draws a bit less power.įeatures RADEON X800 Technology Specifications Just as the RV360 core that we found in the Radeon 9600 XT, the R420 is based on a 0.13 micron low-k process. While not revolutionary compared to the R320 and RV360 cores, it still has enough improvements to make it more than a minor update. The downside of course is that this card is a 2-slot solution compared to the reference X800 XT that is a 1-slot solution.įIND THE BEST PRICES FOR HIS Video Cards AT PRICEGRABBER HIS claims that the cooler not only lowers the temperature around 11 degrees compared to the stock cooler but also is much more silent. This prevents the fan from recycling warm air to cool the VPU, which increases cooling performance and lowers the air temperature inside the case significantly. The IceQ II cooling system draws cool air from inside the case and exhausts warm air outwards. The first thing that is apparent is that this card uses a really cool (pun intended) cooler. So what is special with this card? As the image shows, this isnt a common reference ATI card. Yes, a long and complicated name, but somehow it does fit with this card since it is anything but simple. Today, I am looking at the king of their cards, the HIS Excalibur X800 XT IceQ II VIVO LIMITED EDITION.
With their IceQ line of ATI cards, they have gained a very good reputation. I always admire companies that try to do something special with their products. Cooled by the excellent IceQ II cooling solution, the card not only is cool and quiet but also extremely fast. HIS is once again back with a ATI video card for the hardcore gamer.
