The first graphics cards using the R to be released were the Radeon Equipped with 4 vertex shader units, R possessed over twice the geometry processing capability of the preceding Radeon and the GeForce4 Tiin addition to the greater feature-set offered compared to DirectX 8 shaders. Meanwhile, the also became popular because it could in some cases be modified into the much more powerful 96600se ATI thus could achieve higher clock speeds.
Besides advanced architecture, reviewers also took note of ATI's change in strategy. Multi-sampling offered vastly superior performance over the supersampling method on older Radeons, and superior image quality compared to NVIDIA's offerings at the time.

The performance and quality increases offered by the R GPU is considered to be 96600se of the greatest in the history of 3D graphics, alongside the achievements GeForce and Voodoo Graphics. Retrieved 23 March The R also offered advanced anisotropic filtering which incurred a much smaller performance hit than the anisotropic solution of the GeForce4 and other competitors' cards, while offering significantly improved zti over Radeon 's anisotropic filtering implementation which was highly angle dependent.
ATI demonstrated part of what was capable with pixel shader PS2. This freed up engineering resources that were channeled towards driver improvementsand the performed phenomenally well at 900se because of this.
Radeon was one of the shortest-lived product of ATI, later replaced by the Radeon series. The R was the first board to truly take advantage of a bit memory bus.
ATI, however, had not only doubled their bus to bit, but also integrated an advanced crossbar memory controller, somewhat similar to NVIDIA 's memory technology. The still held its own against 9600sse revised FXprimarily and significantly in tasks involving atu SM2.

The other two variants were thewhich was simply a lower-clocked Pro, and the SE, which had half the pixel processing units disabled could sometimes be enabled again. Another "RV" board followed in earlyon the Radeonwhich was a Radeon with a lower core clock though an identical memory clock and bus width.
Another selling point for the was that it was still a single-slot card, compared to the dual-slot requirements of the FX and FX From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
They were designed to maintain a performance lead over the recently launched GeForce FX Ultra, which it managed to do without difficulty. In earlythe cards were replaced by the or, R Anti-aliasing was, for the first time, a fully usable option even in the newest and most demanding titles of the day.
The would be the second of ATI's chips after the to be shipped to third-party manufacturers instead of ATI producing all of its graphics cards, though ATI would still produce cards off of its 9600se chips.

Later inthree new cards were launched: However, refined design and manufacturing techniques enabled a doubling of transistor count and a significant clock speed gain. While this differed from the older chips using 2 or 3 for the original Radeon texture units per pipeline, this did not mean R could not perform multi-texturing as efficiently as older chips.
