Currently, only the distinctly low-end Radeon HD 34 add-in cards are compatible with Hybrid Crossfire.Īs for the new Athlon 64 4850e CPU, it's a dual-core chip with an exceptionally low 45 Watt power rating. It boils down to the ability to boost 3D performance by pairing up a low-powered discreet graphics chip with the Radeon HD 3200 core in dual-GPU Crossfire rendering mode. The Radeon HD 3200's other headline grabbing new feature is Hybrid Crossfire. Which in turn allows the use of a cheaper, cooler running and less powerful processor.

To put it another way, AMD reckons the this chipset is capable of offload much if not all of the work involved in decoding high definition movie disks from the CPU. The big news here is hardware decode of all the key HD video codecs including MPEG2, AVC (H,264) and VC-1. Perhaps more importantly, it also includes AMD's swanky UVD 2D video decode engine. With 40 stream processors and the capability to pump four pixels per cycle, on paper it's comfortably the most powerful integrated 3D graphics core yet. Much of the 780G's multimedia prowess is thanks to its Radeon HD 3200 graphics core.ĭespite the name, it's actually virtually identidal to the Radeon HD 2400, AMD's entry level discreet offering of around one year ago. Add in HDCP compliance and you have an affordable PC platform that ticks all of our HD boxes. Along with good old VGA, the 780G is wired up to provide DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort video outputs.

Where it does differ from the norm is the full compliment of digital and analogue video connections. Support for discreet graphics is provided by 16 full speed PCI Express 2.0 lanes, with a further four for additional peripherals. In terms of expansion and ports, 780G is largely predictable. But whatever the case, odds are it'll be cheap. The specifics depend on the processor you plump for (remember, AMD CPUs have integrated memory controllers). Memory support takes in various flavours and speeds of DDR2. That translates into support for all the latest AMD processors, including single, dual and quad-core chips. On paper, there's little doubting that the 780G motherboard chipset has one of - if not the - most comprehensive feature sets of any mainstream integrated solution.

Does this mainstream computing solution, which majors on features and efficiency rather than outright grunt, truly have what it takes to deliver a great high definition experience? With all that in mind, we're much more intrigued than we otherwise might be.
