ATI AIW X800 XT

Review @ FiringSquad

Zitat

First, you’ve got the ability to connect both DVI and VGA displays to the ALL-IN-WONDER X800 XT. Previous ALL-IN-WONDER products provided twin VGA connections, or just one DVI, never before have both connection options been available on one card. This gives end users more display options than ever before (although we would like to see ATI drop a DVI adapter in the package for dual VGA capability out-of-the-box).

According to ATI, this is all made possible due in part to the new Microtune MT2050 TV tuner. The new tuner is considerably smaller than its predecessor, and draws less power so it generates less heat. The one downside to the new tuner that is quite apparent however is its performance: it now takes three or four times as long to change the channel. We’re talking going from a fraction of a second to 2+ seconds. This is the ALL-IN-WONDER X800 XT’s only real flaw.

The second first is ATI’s new input/output dongle, the “dominos”. While we were a bit skeptical of the idea at first, it’s pretty apparent that ATI wouldn’t have been able to put this many input and output connections on their VIVO module used previously without a few serious design changes. The new input/output scheme provides all the connections an enthusiast would want (including HDTV) plus a new one – an analog audio output – and for added convenience, the dongles can be stacked to save room on your desk. ATI then rounds the package out with their more powerful REMOTE WONDER II remote control unit for controlling everything from your couch.

The bottom line is that the ALL-IN-WONDER X800 XT is the highest-performing, most feature-packed, sacrifice-free ALL-IN-WONDER product ATI has produced to date. [...]

2sec um Channels zu wechseln ist heftig - nix für Zapper

Als ich ne 98se AIW @ pro hatte, habe ich diese wegen dem fehlenden zweiten Monitor Ausgang verkauft und bin auf die Kombi Grak + TV Karte umgestiegen.

Daher ist die Dualscreen-Fähigkeit schon ein wiegender Pluspunkt.

Liegt das nicht an Microsoft? Nein, ich kenn mich zu wenig aus um da genaueres zu sagen.

Aber was hätte das eigentlich für einen Sinn?
btw hab ich da dunkle Erinnerungen daran, dass das bei mir dosch schon mal ging - kann das sein? Mit Ultramon?

Also doch

schaut nice aus
