The Radeon 9800 XXL was a graphics card by ATI, launched on October 1st, 2003. Built on the 150 nm process, and based on the R360 graphics processor, in its R360 variant, the card supports DirectX 9.0. Since Radeon 9800 XXL does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. The R360 graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 218 mm² and 117 million transistors. It features 8 pixel shaders and 4 vertex shaders, 8 texture mapping units, and 8 ROPs. Due to the lack of unified shaders you will not be able to run recent games at all (which require unified shader/DX10+ support). ATI has paired 128 MB DDR memory with the Radeon 9800 XXL, which are connected using a 256-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 390 MHz, memory is running at 338 MHz.
Being a single-slot card, the ATI Radeon 9800 XXL draws power from Floppy power connector, with power draw not exactly known. Display outputs include: 2x VGA, 1x S-Video. Radeon 9800 XXL is connected to the rest of the system using an AGP 8x interface.
