    The ATI All-In-Wonder X800XT is here!
    This sucker is awsome...here are just some of it's features:
    • 256MB GDDR3
    • 500MHz Core clock speed
    • 500MHz Memory clock speed
    • TV and FM on demand (you can pause and record live TV and FM radio directly to your HDD)
    • VGA connector for analog CRT
    • S-video or composite connector for TV/VCR
    • DVI-I connector for digital CRT or flat panel
    • Drive two displays simultaneously with independent resolutions and refresh rates
    • YPrPb output adapter included which enables output to HDTV-ready televisions

    Here are some pictures:
    The card
    The input/output blocks

    So by now, you're all thinking, "How much does this baby cost?" Well, take a seat, and prepare to drop $600 for this card. :eek: I must say, I am so glad that ATI decided to make it an AGP card and not PCIe. :thumb: :rolling:

    I wonder if this will be more than just a "paper launch".

    I got a new computer 5 months ago. Ordered an X800 XT. The vendor put in an X800 Pro "temporarily" because the XT wasn't available. So here I am 5 months later, still waiting for the XT. I'm pretty sure the vendor isn't screwing me around, because I've read that the XT's are vitually impossible to come by.

    (Not that I'm hurting with "just" a Pro, especially since I'm 1-2 years behind in my games.)

    Oh, I found the card "In Stock" at NewEgg.com....so it's out for sure. ATI announced the AIW card awhile ago :rolling:
