D-Sub (VGA)
The 15-pin VGA connector is common to most monitors and high definition television. You can connect your LCD or CRT monitor / TV with the D-sub VGA connector
Dual-Link DVI + DisplayPort
Two digital interfaces enable card to display ultra high resolutions of up to 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz
AMD Eyefinity
Technology maximizes your field of view across up to 3 displays, fully engaging your peripheral vision. For gaming, this puts you right IN the game, while for other applications, it helps to increase productivity by increasing your visual workspace so that you can see more windows simultaneously. The technology is also ideal for multimedia applications, since it enables you to keep several 'palettes' or 'panels' open over a larger workspace while you edit your images or videos
Note:
When running Microsoft Windows XP, Eyefinity technology supports a maximum of 2 displays
40nm Process Technology
Cutting edge manufacturing process allows for efficient, high performance parts which use less power than their predecessors
Hyper Memory Support
Up to 2.8 GB memory support with Hyper Memory for Windows Vista and Windows 7
AMD Stream Technology
Accelerate the most demanding applications with AMD Stream technology - and do more with your PC. This feature allows you to use the teraflops of compute power locked up in your graphics processer for tasks other than traditional graphics, like video encoding, at which the graphics processor is many times quicker than using the CPU alone
AMD Avivo HD (DVD/HD-DVD/Blu-ray Playback)
Watch the hottest Blu-ray movies or other HD content at full 1080p display resolution and beyond and enjoy a more feature rich experience with enhanced Unified Video Decoder(UVD)
AMD CrossFireX Multi-GPU Technology
Triple or quadruple gaming power with AMD CrossFireX Multi-GPU Technology! Supports up to 4 graphics cards to be used in a single system. Requires an ATI CrossFireX Ready motherboard, an ATI CrossFireX Bridge Interconnect (for each additional graphics card) and may require a specialized power supply
PCI-Express 2.1
Like 2.0, PCIe 2.1 doubles data throughput from 2.5 Gbps to 5.0 Gbps, allowing you to take advantage of the full performance potential of your graphics card
Microsoft DirectX 11
Experience intense gaming performance and unrivalled image quality with amazing 3D visual effects, realistic lighting and lifelike imagery! New features in DirectX 11, like Hardware Tessellation, HDR Texture Compression, Multi-threading support and DirectCompute, bring lifelike gaming and an experience never possible on a PC before
OpenGL 3.1 and 3.2
Supports OpenGL API (Application Programming Interface) to accelerate performance of applications outside of DirectX, including Adobe Autodesk 2D/3D graphic design
Shader Model 5.0
Supports Shader Model 5.0 feature set, including VTF (Vertex Texture Fetch), a key element used extensively in many of today's games. Without support for this feature, the game will fall back to a lesser shader path, resulting in a loss of cool, lifelike effects
AMD Catalyst Control Center
Software application gives you complete control over the performance and visual quality of your graphics card, enabling the best possible experience on your PC
Accelerated Video Transcoding
Massive parallel architecture and support for common shader transcoding instructions accelerates video encoding / transcoding far beyond what was possible with the CPU alone. Requires application support for AMD Stream technology and Digital rights management restrictions may apply
Dolby TrueHD and DTSHD Master Audio Support
