About the ATI Radeon SDR GPU

The ATI Radeon SDR is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q2 2000. It is built on the Rage 6 GPU microarchitecture (codename Rage 6) and is manufactured on a 180 nm process.

Memory

The SDR has 32 MB of SDR memory, with a 166 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 2.66 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 166 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 6 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 2 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The SDR is a compact, low-profile graphics card that fits into 1 PCIe expansion slot. It supports VGA display connections. ATI recommends a power supply of at least 200 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 23 W.
