Radeon X1550 PCI: specs and benchmarks
Summary
ATI started Radeon X1550 PCI sales on 2007. This is a desktop graphics card based on an Ultra-Threaded SE architecture and made with 90 nm manufacturing process. It is primarily aimed at gamer market. 256 MB of DDR2 memory clocked at 532 MBps are supplied, and together with 64 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 4.256 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is a single-slot graphics card attached via PCI interface. No additional power connector is required, and power consumption is at 27 Watt.
