The cards are equipped with VGA, DVI and TV-Outs, but do not have the second RAMDAC, which means that they do not support HydraVision technology for dual-monitor configurations.
The funny thing is that CP Technology (PowerColor), which is manufacturing ATI based graphics cards for Hercules announced its own 128MB graphics cards on RADEON 8500 two months ago.
The recommended retail pricing for the new cards is: $269.99 for 3D Prophet 8500 128MB and $199.99 for 3D Prophet 8500 LE 128MB.
