Wanted to let you all know we've completed another article. After completing our Radeon X1950 Pro round up, we thought it might be fun to have a go on testing Crossfire with these cards. Unfortunately, we ran into some snags leading us to conclude AMD have a lot of work to do regarding Crossfire and their Catalyst drivers.

The Radeon X1950 Pro is very likely the most popular card in AMD's lineup right now. Though AMD decided to cull shader processing power by equipping the card with 12 pixel pipelines with 3 pixel shader units for a total of 36 shader units, they wisely retain the 256 bit memory bus from the card's more powerful brethen. This allows the card to provide performance close to NVIDIA's GeForce 7950GT, though its selling price is actually closer to GeForce 7900GS levels.
