Radeon VE / 7000
Having launched a whole line of RADEON-based cards on the market, ATI was concerned that in the sector of low-budget systems and where 3D graphics are not needed (and more emphasis is placed on working in 2D and outputting an image to two receivers), steel Matrox G450 and NVIDIA GeForce2 MX TwinView. There were no ATI products in this area at that time. And now the RADEON VE has been released, which can give the user an even better solution than the above-mentioned competitors. ATI severely cut down the 3D part of this processor, so cards based on RADEON VE would have been more successful if 3D had been slightly stronger. Later, video cards based on this processor were renamed RADEON 7000 (both 32 and 64 MB variants).
