What is the relation betweenAMD and Diamond Multimedia?
Why do they manufacture the same, say, ATI Radeon 2600 XT? I'm really confused! Tried to google, but found nothing that tells me about this. I'm trying to purchase an ATI Radeon 2600 with 512 MB RAM. From which manufacturer should I purchase? Which is better? Thanks.
If you check some other websites, you will notice other brands such as Sapphire, MSI, etc. also manufactur cards that title Radeon XXXX. The manufacturers vary, but the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is the same company, ATI in this case. Even if 2 cards have the same GPU, (in your case the Radeon HD 2600XT), it doesn't mean the cards are the same. Every manufacturer makes the cards differently (depending on cost and performance), thats why 2 different cards with the same GPU have different specs, such as an Diamond Radeon HD 2600XT maybe has 512MB of RAM and an MSI HD 2600XT Radeon only has 256MB. You have to compare the technical details of the cards to see what suits your needs most. What you have to look out for: - You want to have a good amount of RAM (most new cards <512MB type: GDDR3) - GPU frequency and other functions as stream processors and shader frequency, some manufacturers overclock the GPU on their cards - Pixel-Pipelines (the more, the merrier!) - GPU features, such as DX10 & OpenGL 3.2 support, Shader model and full screen Anti-Aliasing As for what manufacturer: Diamond is quality wise pretty good, but Sapphire, HIS, or MSI are to, if you don't have a budget I'd get the most expensive on, but check the specs first, and compare. Here's the specs for you Diamond Radeon HD 2600XT: * GPU: ATI Radeon™ 2600XT * Bus Type: PCI-Express * Core Clock: 800 MHZ * Memory Size: 512MB * Memory Configuration: 16Mx32 GDDR3 * Memory Interface: 128-Bit * Memory Speed: 1.4 GHz * Peak Pixel Fill Rate: 19.2 Gpixels/sec * Peak Memory Bandwidth: 22.4 GB/s * API Support: DirectX® 9.0 and 10.0, OpenGL * Display Formats: Dual DVI + HDTV-out * 128-bit GDDR3 memory interface * High-speed 128-bit-HDR (High Dynamic Range) rendering * Up to 24X Custom Filter Anti-Aliasing * Support for Microsoft® DirectX® 10 & Shader Model 4.0, OpenGL 2.0 Sorry for the long rant, but hth!!
Will the Diamond MultimediaViper Radeon X1650PRO 256 MBwork on a Dell Dimension 3000desktop?
2.79 ghz 2 gb ram current graphics card: nVidia geForce FX 5500
It sounds like you have the exact same computer that I used to have. Yes, that video will work, seeing as I think the FX5500 comes in PCI only. Just make sure that the X1650PRO is PCI interface and it will work just fine.
When is my Diamond Multimediarebate coming?
I cant get to the rebate center, (www.diamondmm.com/rebates.php ), live support is always offline, and I sent the rebate 4 months ago and it hasn't came (come?) yet! =S Oh and if you try to access rebate center, it goes back to the index!! Thanks in advance, -Chris
You may never get it. One of the biggest rebate companies went into bankruptcy and none of those rebates are likely to be fulfilled. You can click the link below to see the status of your rebate, assuming the company is still in business. The second link is to a forum discussing problems with Diamond MM rebates. It may just take a very long time to get your rebate.
