ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3850 X2

The ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3850 X2 is a notebook graphics solution by AMD that consists out of two Mobility Radeon HD 3850 chips in crossfire combination. Both GPUs each render a different frame (AFR mode) to increase the performance. Still the performance advantage varies from game to game usually between 0-40%.

According to AMD the performance should be similar to a GeForce 8800M GTX SLI (better 3DMark results but slower framerates in Bioshock and Crysis). Still demanding games of 2007 like Crysis (27 fps versus 36 fps) and Bioshock (65 versus 75 fps) should be playable (altought Crysis e.g. not in highes detail settings).

The features of the X2 are similar of a single HD 3850. It also supports Avivo HD to decode HD videos (MPEG-2, VC-1, and H.264). The current consumption should be similar to two HD 3850 cards, and therefore this solution is only for big and heavy laptops.
