AMD announced the release of its Radeon HD 3870 X2 graphics card Monday. The company’s latest offering, courtesy of its 2006 ATI acquisition, combines two ATI Radeon 3870 chips on a single graphics board, connected via an integrated CrossFire technology. The double-barreled approach makes AMD the first graphics technology provider to “break the Teraflop barrier,” according to the company. The card is the first graphics processor for “enthusiasts” that uses the 55 nanometer process technology, according to AMD — a big plus for hardcore PC gamers.
