Introduction

A while back AMD has quietly launched their HD 3400 and HD 3600 Series. The cards are based on the RV620 and RV635 GPUs which are a refresh of the RV610 and RV630. The major features they introduce are support for PCI-Express 2.0 and a transition from a 65nm to a 55 nm manufacturing process. Both feature AMD's UVD for accelerated video decoding and integrated HDCP+Audio support for media PC systems.

The Diamond HD 3650 is one of the first HD3650 cards to feature 1 GB of video memory. Please note that this is DDR2 which is a bit aged already, but probably came at a great price for Diamond so they wouldn't let the opportunity pass.
