AMD has announced the introduction and availability of the ATI Radeon
HD 3400 and ATI Radeon HD 3600 series, the leading-edge entry-level and
mainstream graphics processors (GPU) in the ATI Radeon HD 3000 series. Both series continue to advance AMD’s leadership by delivering display
connectivity through DisplayPort integrated into the GPU.
Blu-ray or HD DVD disc playback can be enjoyed in full HD
(1080p)thanks to AMD’s proprietary unified video decoder (UVD)
technology found on the ATI Radeon HD 3400 and ATI Radeon HD 3600
series.
Immersive home theater environments can be created using the built-in
support for six channel (5.1) Dolby Digital surround audio transmission
through HDMI. In addition, the ATI Radeon HD 3450 will support fully silent
(passive) cooling, delivering the ideal solution for home theater PCs.
Gamers looking for graphics processors that allow for further
scalability will find that both series boast ATI CrossFireX, which delivers the
option of multi-GPU upgradability. ATI Hybrid Graphics will allow users to
combine an ATI Radeon HD 3400 GPU with a compatible AMD 7-Series
chipset.
