Posted on Wednesday, January 23 2008 @ 18:39 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck
It's hard to believe that two months have passed since the launch of the ATI Radeon HD 3870 and the Radeon HD 3850 video cards, but it has been that long. ATI has been busy the past couple months getting the Radeon HD 3400 and 3600 series out the door and today is the day! Read on to see how these $49-$99 Radeon HD graphics cards do when we put them to the test!

"The ATI Radeon HD 3650 is the direct replacement for the ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro as you can tell from the chart above. The ATI Radeon HD 3650 is active cooled with a core clock of 725MHz and a memory clock of 800MHz and will be available with two kinds of memory ICs - GDDR3 and GDDR2. The slower and older GDDR2 memory chips will be used on the $79 price point cards, while the $99 cards will feature faster GDDR3 memory ICs..."

Check it out at Legit Reviews. The reviewer says both cards don't really impress but are a nice choice if you only want to spend $50-100 on a graphics card. If you want good gaming performance it's a better idea to shop for a Radeon HD 3850.
