Im interested in the HD 2600XT, assuming its better DX9 wise than my current X1950XT, but at the rummered price of $199 im sure it will be a great buy for a mid range card.
does anyone know if they are making that? or is it going to be like the x1300, x1600, and
x1900?
Wait.. HDMI does sound, doesn't it?
