ATI Unveils Radeon HD 4530 Graphics Adapter

AMD has unveiled its new ATI Radeon HD 4530 graphics adapter. The new video card offers a low-budget option for PC video gamers.

According to NewsOXY's Latest Computer Technology news page, AMD has unveiled a new low-budget PC video card for gamers. The starting price is only $39.

"The company is aiming at customers who either play video games or are looking forward to building a new HTPC system. AMD hopes to persuade Nvidia customers by adding more features within a low-cost budget graphics card."

The new graphics cards can deliver gaming and HD multimedia performance. This is decent for a low-budget video card with all the modern capabilities. The ATI Radeon HD 4550 graphics card can play video game titles previously unplayable by cards in this price segment.

"The new Radeon products carry the same number of SP units (80), texture units (8), and ROPs (4). The Core clock is at 600MHz. The graphics cards have a 64-bit memory bus.

The only difference between the two cards is the amount of available RAM and that RAM's clock speed. The ATI HD 4550 utilizes 800MHz DDR3, while the 4350 will run at 500MHz and use DDR2."

The new graphics cards are based on the ATI Radeon HD 4800 series technology. The video cards support the latest Microsoft DirectX 10.1 for games and HD multimedia capabilities.
