“In the middle of ATI’s current GPU lineup is the X1600 series, based on the R530 GPU and described by ATI as the “Absolute in Mainstream Gaming Performance”. On paper, the specs look quite impressive for a card in the US$120-150 price range, moreover, AGP versions are available for those who want an inexpensive experience of SM3.0 goodness. All of this and even a game bundle is consolidated in the cornucopia described as X1600 series.”Here are some more Graphics Card articles from around the web:
