The Radeon X1550 based EAX1550/TD/256M from ASUS is a CrossFire ready card great for basic gaming or running Vista. The 256MB of GDDR2 memory is enough for most tasks. If necessary, the HyperMemory technology can access system memory for real-time graphic processing.
Dual screen ability lets you take advantage of some of ASUS’s unique features. You can run the game on the main screen and have the Gamer OSD and Game FaceMessenger utilities open on the other. Gamer OSD lets you chat and manage your cards settings without having to exit the game-overclock on the fly for maximum control of your game play experience. Use Game FaceMessenger for IM style in-game chats. The VGA and DVI-I ports let you attach any monitor you want. They also include a DVI-I to VGA adapter if you want to run dual VGA monitors.
Sometimes you want to watch movies, hook your HDTV to the DVI interface or use the adapter cable for component video connection. Or, if you’d rather watch the movie on your PC then the Splendid Video Enhancing Technology kicks in, enhancing color depth and intensity delivering a cleaner, clearer picture.
