Radeon 7500
ATI RADEON 7500 is manufactured according to 0.15µm technology, its 3D part is entirely inherited from ATI RADEON, and its 2D part - from RADEON VE. Thus, the RADEON 7500 turned out to be a collection of well-adjusted, time-tested architecture details. And rewiring the chip and transferring it to a thinner process technology made it possible to achieve operation at very high frequencies - up to 300 MHz and higher.
As a result, a new chip appeared, which has the ATI RADEON architecture, but is almost twice as fast, and at the same time has high-quality support for dual-monitor configurations. The purpose of the release of ATI RADEON 7500 was to press the "sworn friend" in the sector of mid-range video cards - NVIDIA GeForce2 Pro, GeForce2 Ti and, to some extent, GeForce3 Ti200.
