ATI Mobility Radeon X1900 vs ATI Mobility Radeon X1450 vs ATI Mobility Radeon X1800XT

ATI Mobility Radeon X1900

► remove from comparison ATI Mobility Radeon X1900

At the moment, the ATI Mobility Radeon X1900 is the top video card from ATI for notebooks. The performance is better than X1800 / 7900GS. Due to heat problems the marketing was delayed but now this problem seems to be fixed. According first reports it is about 12% faster than a X1800 (Alienware configurator). The performance in our tests was about as fast as the Nvidia 7900 GS.

The X1900 is a enhanced X1800 produced in 80nm. The 36 Pixel Shader count like 12 pipelines from Nvidia cards.

The AVIVO technology allows the chip to accelerate H.264, DivX, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, WMV9, and VC-1 videos.

ATI Mobility Radeon X1450

► remove from comparison ATI Mobility Radeon X1450

The ATI Mobility Radeon X1450 dedicated graphic card for laptops has an improved relation of performance to current consumption compared with its predecessor ATI Mobility Radeon X1400. Both are part of the lower middle class. The performance can be compared with an elder X600, but technically it is a X1350.

Because of the AVIVO engine the card can support the CPU in decoding MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, WMV9 und VC-1 videos.

ATI Mobility Radeon X1800XT

► remove from comparison ATI Mobility Radeon X1800XT

More pipelines and a faster clockspeed enable the X1800XT to have more performance than the X1800 and make it therefore good for elder DirectX 9 games. It is comparable with NVIDIA GeForce Go 7800 GTX.
