With leading-edge graphics cards getting more and more dedicated RAM shoved onto their PCBs, it’s only surprising that it has taken this long for a 1GB single GPU card to hit the market. Diamond Multimedia has just announced the launch of its Radeon HD 2900 XT 1GB, which packs a full gigabyte of GDDR4 memory, second-generation unified shader architecture, 512-bit memory interface, integrated CrossFire scalability, and built-in HDMI support. Moreover, it also includes ATI’s Avivo display technology, dual-link DVI output, HDCP compliance, and DirectX 10 support.
