Asus EAX1600PRO/TD is equipped with exclusive ASUS innovations and ATI Radeon X1600PRO GPU and high-speed DDR3 memory. A powerful combination of the industry’s fastest PCI Express architecture and rendering pipeline (over 15% faster than generic RADEON X1600PRO Series), ASUS EAX1600PRO/TD is providing high quality, better performance, and affordable price. Incorporating exclusive technologies, such as ASUS Splendid, GameLive Show, GameReplay, and GameFace Messenger, ASUS EAX1600PRO/TD/ is a new and powerful model targeted to address the entry-level segment of the discrete desktop market. Asus EAX1600PRO/TD also will deliver exceptional quality and performance to the most demanding user for 3D games, streaming media, digital video, and office applications.
The EAX1600PRO/I/256M/A is a half-height card, which makes it well suited for installation into a standard size PC, or possibly a slim-line HTPC. With the GPU and memory both running at 400MHz, it doesn’t take much more than the small heatsink/fan to keep things running cool. I almost expect that Asus could have even gone so far as to employ a completely passive cooling method, which would have cut down on power consumption and noise output, but the setup as it is helped us out with overclocking, as you will see later on in the review. To keep things streamlined, 256MB of Infineon GDDR3 memory are placed towards the far end of the card, with 2 chips on each side.
