Graphics Cards
If there is one area that ATI always has been ahead of NVIDIA, it is the ‘all-in-one’ type of cards that include a TV-tuner as well as all sorts of video in/out connections. While NVIDIA has their Personal Cinema, one thing that has made it less of interest for enthusiasts like me is the fact that the OEM’s always seemed to use slower GPU’s, which made them less suitable for gaming. ATI has done things differently. Their AIW (All-in-Wonder) series of cards were introduced back in 1996 and has constantly been updated with new versions running both the cheaper and slower GPU’s as well as the top of the line GPU’s. Today, I am taking a look at the new flagship in the AIW-series, the AIW 9800 Pro.
