RD580 Launch Day - ATI CrossFire Xpress 3200 Chipset
Comment | Print | Email to a Friend | Font Size: AAToday brings us the debut of ATI's all-new CrossFire Xpress 3200 motherboard chipset (previously codenamed RD580). One of the biggest highlights over its predecessor (the RD480 chipset) would be the implementation of two x16 PCI Express lanes for far superior bandwidth and overall graphics performance. Overclocking on these boards is said to be a hell of a lot better too, as is general stability.
