ATI Radeon HD 2600
$140.00
Released November, 2007
The Pros:Installation is fairly easy, just plug it in and install drivers as usual. Runs reliably for years of use. Handles multiple monitors gracefully, little to no slowdown.
The Cons:Native support for anything other than DVI-D is lacking. Older technology, can find faster video cards at a much lower price now. Draws a fair bit of power to run properly.
The ATI Radeon HD 2600 is a lower-end graphics card available in XT and Pro models. Supporting DirectX 10, it provides an upgrade from integrated graphics but won't enable top performance in more demanding games.
