ATI Radeon X800XL

GIGABYTE Technology introduced the GV-RX80L512DE VGA card based on the ATI X800 XL series graphics accelerator with an impressive 512 MB of onboard memory – twice the capacity of standard high-end VGA card offerings that feature 256 MB of memory. The new high-definition graphics accelerator card also features a dual 256-bit memory interface and 16 pixel pipelines to ensure outstanding performance with unequalled quiet operation for media center type applications.


3Dc™ Technology
ATI's image enhancement technology that uses unique normal-map compression to bring characters to life and scenery to greater realism by significantly improving image details with increased memory bandwidth.

SMARTSHADER™ HD
Supports the Microsoft® DirectX® 9.0 vertex and pixel programmable engine to ensure top-notch compatibility and performance for OpenGL 2.0 applications.

SMOOTHVISION™ HD
The industry's most advanced anti-aliasing technology that enhances images without compromising performance at higher resolutions.

HyperZ™ HD
HyperZ HD is an essential technology for unlocking the potential of High Definition Gaming in the Radeon X800. By maximizing the efficiency of data transfer between graphics memory and the 3D rendering engine, it removes the key memory bandwidth performance bottlenecks that otherwise occur when rendering complex, anti-aliased scenes at high display resolutions. This is accomplished through a combination of hidden surface removal, lossless compression, caching, and fast clearing techniques.

Microsoft® DirectX® 9.0
Ensures the best performance and application compatibility for all DirectX 9.0 applications.

VIDEOSHADER™ HD
Takes advantage of its advanced shade processing engine for user programmable video effects, video quality enhancement, and encoding/decoding of various video standards, including MPEG1/2/4, Real Media, DivX and WMV9.

Catalyst™ Control Center
ATI's all-new Catalyst Control Center goes far beyond traditional driver configuration software—it's a feature-rich and stable 3D acceleration control application that puts you in complete command of your ATI visual processing unit (VPU). Catalyst Control Center offers exceptional graphics performance and visual quality for the ultimate in performance, stability, and innovation. Safe GPU overclocking, custom profiles, and assignable hotkeys are just a few of the many new features. You'll also enjoy frequent updates, reliable customer service, and an interactive user feedback program, all backed by ATI's technical confidence, industry-leading capability, and uncompromising commitment to creating your ultimate visual experience.

OpenGL 2.0®
Ensure top-notch compatibility and performance for all OpenGL application.

PCI Express
Designed to run perfectly with the next-generation PCI Express bus architecture. This new bus doubles the bandwidth of AGP 8X delivering over 4 GB/sec. in both upstream and downstream data transfers.

GIGABYTE @VGA
To make it easier update the VGA BIOS than before and help users update the latest VGA BIOS from Internet automatically.
