  • With the same 350MHz RAMDAC found on the other RADEON products, the All In Wonder delivers crystal clear test text at high resolutions. In fact, resolutions of up to 2048x1536 at 75Hz are supported. As far as PC usage is concerned, the RADEON offers 2D quality that matches the infamous clarity of Matrox's lineup.

    If you plan on using the All In Wonder RADEON in conjunction with a TV, you shouldn't expect nearly as much. Although the video output capabilities of the Rage Theatre companion chip are some of the best available on the PC, text displayed in resolutions above 640x480 is far from crisp and inevitably causes eyestrain. If you compared the quality of ATI's S-video or composite outputs with those used by manufacturers producing GeForce2-based accelerators, the RADEON would take the gold. However, if you plan on word processing or just browsing the web, the 2D quality of the All In Wonder might not be sufficient for extended stints on a TV.
