Introduction




AMD's yet to get back into the game as far as desktop GPU architecture is concerned but that's about to change today with the release of the Radeon HD 2900 XT SKU, perhaps more commonly known as R600.

AMD's also announcing details of its mid-range and low-end DX10-compliant SKUs today.

Let's find out as we take a closer look at AMD's answer to GeForce 8800. And yes, I'll refer to it as an AMD Radeon HD 2900 XT.
