PowerColor Company made a not very detailed press-release about the launching of four new mainboards based on ATI TRADEON 8500 and RADEON N7500LE chips.
Both RADEON 8500 based graphics cards are provided with VIVO (Video-In and Video-Out), a DVI-Out and should theoretically work at standard chip and memory frequencies: 275MHz/275MHz DDR. However, when we take a closer look at them, it turns out that both are built on RADEON 8500LE chip and hence their working frequencies turn out equal to 250MHz/250MHz DDR. The package also includes video editing software. The cards differ from one another by the supported graphics memory: 64MB and 128MB.<%BANNER[article]%>
RADEON 7500LE based graphics cards are equipped with 64MB DDR SDRAM with 64bit access, DVI-I and S-Video Outs, and differ only by the supported interface: PCI or AGP. They are positioned as OEM solutions in the first place.
