AMD is now shiping ATI Radeon HD 2400 and 2600 in volume to its board customers. They are a top-to-bottom line of 10 discrete graphics processors (GPUs) for both desktop and mobile platforms. They feature DirectX 10 and HD media playback.

The series boasts many firsts for the graphics industry, including a powerful second-generation Unified Shader Architecture (USA), a 512-bit memory bus designed for full performance high dynamic range (HDR) rendering, and new Unified Video Decoder (UVD) technology for high-fidelity HD media playback, which offloads video decoding from the CPU to the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) to lower system power consumption.
