ATI Radeon X800

The ATI Mobility Radeon X800 is an enthusiast-grade gaming graphics card. It was featured as an option from select outlets for the D900T and D900K Porta-note laptops.

The Radeon X800 at the time was a suitable alternative option to the NVIDIA GeForce Go6800, in that it had slightly better headroom performance(raw power) and was one of the first graphics cards to utilize GDDR3 as VRAM. However, numerous disadvantages plague the X800 as a usable video option in the D900T and D900K laptops, one being that the card only fully supports DirectX 9.0b and Shaders 2.0, making it fairly useless at modern gaming. The card also tends to run hotter than the NVIDIA chips.
