HIS targets Radeon X1300 card at pre-Express PCI users

Passive cooling

Last week, Reg Hardware reported PowerColor's plan to bring AMD's ATI Radeon X1950 Pro to consumers with older, AGP-based motherboards. This week, it's Hightech Information Systems' turn. It's just announced an ATI-based board for users languishing in the PCI era.

Hightech's HIS X1300 Silence is a passively cooled card fitted with an ATI Radeon X1300 GPU and 256MB of DDR 2 graphics memory. The memory runs at 500MHz, the core at 450MHz. The X1300 has four pixel shaders and two geometry engines.

The part is priced at around £88 inc VAT. ®
