This video card was a little bit revolutionary when it was first released, not because of it's performance or benchmarks, but because it was the first video card to be released with dual processors on.

If not, then take a look at the GeForce chip based cards. One of the main advantages that this card has over its competitors is that it is using the ATI Rage Pro graphics chip which has been in existance for some years and is therefore a proven technology, unlike some others that are a little unstable at the best of times. But don't be fooled into thinking that this chip is old technology because not only has it been updated to perform leading edge graphics acceleration but this ... Read the complete review

ATI's Rage Fury Maxx targets hard-core gamers with double-barreled, 32-bit performance. Its unique design packs two graphics engines on one card, but before you can move up to this level of 3D realism, you need to make sure you meet the minimum system requirements. Two-Fisted Technology The Rage Fury Maxx consists of two 32MB Rage 128 Pro graphics chips, which use ATI's Alternative Frame Rendering (AFR) technology to let them work together. The resulting 3D performance is impressive. This hybrid accelerator is optimized for 32-bit applications and delivers unparalleled 3D textures and color depth at high resolutions. The quality of the images it delivers ... Read the complete review
