Radeon VE: specs and benchmarks

VS

Summary

ATI started Radeon VE sales 19 February 2001. This is a desktop graphics card based on a Rage 6 architecture and made with 180 nm manufacturing process. It is primarily aimed at gamer market. 32 MB of DDR memory clocked at 0.18 GHz are supplied, and together with 64 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 2.928 GB/s.

Compatibility-wise, this is a single-slot graphics card attached via AGP 4x interface. No additional power connector is required, and power consumption is at 23 Watt.

Benchmark performance

Synthetic benchmark performance of Radeon VE. The combined score is measured on a 0-100 point scale.



Passmark

This is the most ubiquitous GPU benchmark. It gives the graphics card a thorough evaluation under various types of load, providing four separate benchmarks for Direct3D versions 9, 10, 11 and 12 (the last being done in 4K resolution if possible), and few more tests engaging DirectCompute capabilities.
