I've been catching up on my morning reading, and it seems we got some subliminal pimpage in the Radeon X1000 article. :D

ATI has realized this potential and is proposing something very cool. Let’s say you have a Radeon X1800 XT, which you use for gaming and experience great gameplay with. Well, what if you also do a lot of Folding or simply want to fully experience games even more? How about taking a lower cost Radeon X 1300 Pro, installing it, and using it for other tasks? Imagine that while you are playing your game, your X1300 Pro is calculating the physics in the game, or the AI and the sound, to provide a much better gaming experience all around. Alternatively, what if you use your X1300 Pro to accelerate Folding processing or other distributed computing applications. Perhaps you are a business and you need faster computations for imaging? The flexibility with how you can expand your computing experience is incredible when you start thinking about your video card do other than simply playing games.

Kyle, you guys rock!

Keep on Folding!! For the [H]orde!!
