AMD HD 4000 mobility video cards unveiled at CES |
I was at CES last week schlepping around the halls looking for something cool. Unfortunately cool was in short supply at this year’s show. One of the things that I did find interesting was the new mobile GPUs that AMD was showing off.
AMD introduced its line of Radeon Mobility 4000 video cards for notebooks that includes the HD 4800, HD 4600, HD 4500 and HD 4300 GPUs. The HD 4800 is the first mobile GPU according to AMD to break the teraflop barrier.
The higher-end GPUs like the HD 4800 support Crossfire as well. If you follow AMD or graphics cards in general, what you need to know is that the new HD 4000 series mobile GPUs offer all of the features that were limited to desktop GPUs before. The HD 4800 even uses GDDR5 RAM. We should see some seriously high performance gaming notebooks using these GPUs soon.
