The Radeon X700 XT was a performance-segment graphics card by ATI, launched on September 1st, 2004. Built on the 110 nm process, and based on the RV410 graphics processor, in its RV410 XT variant, the card supports DirectX 9.0b. Since Radeon X700 XT does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. The RV410 graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 156 mm² and 120 million transistors. It features 8 pixel shaders and 6 vertex shaders, 8 texture mapping units, and 8 ROPs. Due to the lack of unified shaders you will not be able to run recent games at all (which require unified shader/DX10+ support). ATI has paired 128 MB GDDR3 memory with the Radeon X700 XT, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 475 MHz, memory is running at 525 MHz.
Being a single-slot card, the ATI Radeon X700 XT does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is rated at 38 W maximum. Display outputs include: 1x DVI, 1x VGA, 1x S-Video. Radeon X700 XT is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 1.0 x16 interface. Its price at launch was 199 US Dollars.
