ATI Crossfire Xpress 3200 (RD580) Technology Preview

Today we will be talking about ATI’s Crossfire Xpress 3200 (RD580) chipset. In the most basic terms, it’s a dual x16 solution – but it’s much more than RD480 with dual x16 PCIe. RD580 was designed from the ground up and promises to bring real performance benefits through the use of “true” dual x16 PCIe slots. ATI is also boasting superior overclockability, in terms of both headroom and tweakability. As of today, March 1, at 8am CST, you should be able to purchase motherboards using ATI’s new chipset. The first board partner to have product available will be ASUS with their A8R32-MVP Deluxe, to be followed by products from Sapphire, DFI, ABIT, and PCPartner in the weeks to come.
Unfortunately, due to a mix-up in shipping, we don’t have an A8R32-MVP Deluxe on-site for performance testing at this time. That said, we wouldn’t have had the time necessary to really put the motherboard to test anyways, so rather than giving hard performance testing results, we will be discussing the technology behind ATI’s Crossfire Xpress 3200 and what we expect to find when we do get to test the performance. In the near future you can look forward to some head-to-head performance comparisons between leading dual x16 solutions as we investigate ATI’s claims, but for now let’s talk about the technology behind the product.
