CNET product brief
Description: The HP ATI Radeon X300 SE is a 128 MB, mainstream 3D card.Compared to other mainstream 3D display cards on the market, it is relatively inexpensive at around $85.
Pros: None noted, given available product data.
Cons: Has only 128 MB RAM, which is somewhat less than some similarly priced display cards.
Suitability: Suited for all productivity tasks, as well as for the casual 3D gamer.This card supports DirectX 10 technology, used in Microsoft's Windows Vista OS, and is the new technology for the upcoming generation of high-performance games.
Value: In general, this graphics card's features are in line with its price.Also, if you were to judge strictly by the card's chipset you could expect to pay as much as 30% more for a similarly capable card.
Suggestions: (1) Since this card is DVI-capable, you might want a DVI-enabled monitor or a flat-panel display to connect with it -- this will pass the digital video signal directly without converting it to analog, making for better performance.(2) For Editor's Reviews of the latest graphics cards, visit the graphics and sound section of CNET's website.

CNET editors' buying advice
We have not reviewed this product but here is CNET's buying advice on Graphics Cards. This content was chosen based on the features included with this model of graphics card.
Media Center Graphics Card
One of the popular attempted 'convergence devices' of recent years is the media center PC. This can range from a computer with a normal monitor that can receive TV signals, to a central media server that can send movies to the main TV itself. A media center graphics card needs to be capable of outputting signals in a form with which TVs are likely to be compatible.
