The new card also comes with the RV770PRO 2nd generation 55nm chipset, the PCI-Express 2.0 interface, full support for DirectX10.1/SM4.1 and ATI CrossFireX technologies but also built-in HDCP, HDMI, Blu-Ray and HDVD decoder support. Thanks to its exceptional overclocking performance and upgraded video imaging technology, users will be able to enjoy a new level of visual effects.
GECUBE's newly introduced HD4850 1.0GB Overlocking series incorporates ATI's HD4800 series technology with the RV770PRO 2nd generation 55nm GPU and increases onboard GDDR3 memory from 512MB to 1.0GB. The new generation TeraScale graphics engine increases the frequency of the stream processor to 800MHz, allowing the HD4580 1.0GB Overclocking series to achieve core and memory frequencies of up to 650MHz/993*2MHz. On top of the improvements in performance, the new card is equipped with DirectX10.01/SM4.1, ATI CrossFireX and 24X Anti-Aliasing technologies to present enthusiasts with the finest high-definition 3D gaming visuals and a realistic cinematic experience. The Overclocking series includes HDMI and HDCP output as well an upgraded 7.1 channel. It incorporates the latest UVD 2 (Unified Video Decoder 2) and fully supports the newest Dual-Stream, Picture-in-Picture (PIP) features in Blu-Ray and HD DVD.
