HD Gaming in the Next GenerationAdvance to the next generation of gaming with incredible performance, life-like graphics and support for the latest Microsoft DirectX 10.1. With 320 stream processors and PCI Express 2.0 support, you’re ready for the most demanding titles. And thanks to plug-and-play ATI CrossFireX upgradeability, it is easy to turbo-charge your 3D performance. The ATI Radeon HD 4000 Series GPU further enhances the HD entertainment experience by making it easy to make the connection to a big- screen or home theater system. With built-in 5.1 surround audio (AC3) pass-through capabilities, the new GPUs and graphics cards support a single HDMI connection direct to a compatible TV or receiver. This single cable carries both the HD video and 5.1 surround audio for a clean, high definition connection. Some graphics cards will have an HDMI connector built in, while others will use a special ATI Radeon DVI-I to HDMI adapter (optional on some models). These options mean greater choice and flexibility for consumers when connecting to PC monitors or home theaters for maximum enjoyment of full HD 1080p content.

DirectX 10.1 Technology Microsoft DirectX 10.1 is the latest application programming interface from Microsoft that unlocks the state of the art in GPU technology, represented by the ATI Radeon HD 4600 series. Key features include an updated shader model, improved anti-aliasing support, more flexible data access, and tighter specifications for better application compatibility. These features will enable exciting new techniques, such as real-time global illumination, that will define the future direction of interactive 3D graphics. (requires Windows Vista SP1and 10.1 compatible hardware for full features)
AVIVO HD ATI Avivo HD is AMD’s new reference for advanced HD image processing, delivering cool and quiet full-spec HD disc playback with hardware-based Unified Video Decoding (UVD) capability*, built-in HDMI with multi-channel HD surround audio, and support for high-quality connectivity with multiple HDTVs and displays.
Shader Model 4.1 TechnologyGet your box geared up for the future of games with blazing fast shader performance and watch your characters sweat with Shader Model 4.1
Unified Video Decoder Technology (UVD)Connect your PC to your home theater and start watching HD content from your computer using new ATI Radeon HD 4600 series graphics cards. The ATI Radeon HD 4600 Series is designed to decode and playback Blu-ray and HD DVD formats using dedicated hardware within the GPU.
HDMI SupportHDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first and only industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. By delivering crystal-clear, all-digital audio and video via a single cable, HDMI dramatically simplifies cabling and helps provide consumers with the highest-quality home theater experience. Built-in HDMI with multi-channel 5.1 surround audio.
Blu-Ray and HD DVD SupportFeatures hardware HD video processing and HDMI with built-in 5.1 surround audio ATI Avivo HD technology delivers sharp images and vibrant color fidelity from 1080p playback of Blu-ray and HD DVDs movies.
Windows Vista - The Ultimate ExperienceThe cards GPUs provide total support for the Microsoft Windows Vista operating system and improve the performance of the Windows Aero graphical interface. You will be amazed by the dazzling 3D visual effects and have peace of mind that the ATI Catalyst software and drivers are designed and thoroughly tested to ensure full compatibility and stability to keep you up and running.
PCI Express 2.0 SupportPCI Express Base 2.0 specification doubles the interconnect bit rate from 2.5 GT/s to 5 GT/s in a seamless and compatible manner. The performance boost to 5 GT/s is by far the most important feature of the PCI Express 2.0 specifications. It effectively increases the aggregate bandwidth of a 16-lane link to approximately 16 GB/s. The higher bandwidth will allow product designers to implement narrower interconnect links to achieve high performance
