The Radeon LE was a graphics card by ATI, launched on May 1st, 2001. Built on the 180 nm process, and based on the Rage 6 graphics processor, in its 215R6WASA12 variant, the card supports DirectX 7.0. Since Radeon LE does not support DirectX 11 or DirectX 12, it might not be able to run all the latest games. The Rage 6 graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 115 mm² and 30 million transistors. It features 2 pixel shaders and 1 vertex shader 6 texture mapping units, and 2 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 32 MB DDR memory with the Radeon LE, which are connected using a 128-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 148 MHz, memory is running at 148 MHz.
Being a single-slot card, the ATI Radeon LE does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is not exactly known. Display outputs include: 1x VGA. Radeon LE is connected to the rest of the system using an AGP 4x interface.
