| Radeon X1900 GT from Connect3D |
We removed the video card heatsink to take a look. While its body is aluminum-made, its base and fins are copper-made, which is great, as you can see on Figure 7. The heatsink touches the memory chips, cooling them down.

This video card has eight GDDR3 256-Mbit 1.2 ns chips from Samsung (K4J55232QG-BC12), making its 256 MB video memory (256 Mbits x 8 = 256 MB). These chips can run up to 1.6 GHz. Since this video card accesses its memory at 1.2 GHz, there is an impressive 33.33% headroom if you wish to overclock it inside its specs.
As the reviewed card featured VIVO (video capture) function, it had a Rage Theater chip, shown on Figure 9.

On Figure 10 you can see Radeon X1900 GT chip. As you can see, it is based on R580 core.

This video card comes with 2 DVI-to-VGA adaptors, one RCA (composite video) cable, one component video adaptor, one VIVO cable, one S-Video cable and one PCI Express auxiliary power adaptor. |
