1 1080p capable HD display required
2 ATI Radeon HD 3870 GPUs support PCIe 2.0. Some board
configurations may not fully comply with complete PCIe 2.0 specification
and operate
at PCIe 1.1 specifications on motherboards that support PCIe 2.0. Please
consult
with board manufacturer if this is an important feature for you.
ATI Radeon™ HD graphics chips have numerous features integrated into the processor itself
(e.g., HDCP, HDMI, etc.). Third parties manufacturing products based on,
or incorporating ATI Radeon HD graphics chips, may choose to enable some
or all of these features. If a particular feature is important to you, please
inquire of the manufacturer if a particular product supports this feature.
In addition, some features or technologies may require you to purchase additional
components in order to make full use of them (e.g. a Blu-Ray or HD-DVD drive,
HDCP-ready monitor, etc.).
