ATI Mobility Radeon X2300
► remove from comparison
ATI Mobility Radeon X2300 is the successor of ATI Mobility Radeon X1350 for notebooks. Technically it is just a renamed X1350 and therefore also only supports DirectX 9. Also the gaming performance is compareable to the X1350. This means only very low setting in not very demanding games can be displayed fluently.
As other X1000 cards the X2300 supports AVIVO video engine to accelerate MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, WMV9 and VC-1 videos.
The HD version also supports the UVD acceleration for HD videos.
Aero Glass of Windows Vista should run fluently.
