(InfoWorld) - Advanced Micro Devices on Wednesday announced the availability of its 690 chip set, the company's first integrated chip set for AMD processors the includes the ATI Radeon X1250 graphics processor. Integrating the Radeon X1250 graphics processor into the 690 chip set means PCs based on the chip set will not require an add-in graphics card. AMD acquired ATI Technologies last year and has worked quickly to harness the company's graphics expertise with its own processor lineup, including chip sets -- the PC component that connects a processor with other components, including memory and peripherals. The 690 chip set is compatible with AMD's desktop processor lineup and offers several high-end features, including integrated DVI (digital visual interface) and HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) outputs for high-definition video. The chip set also includes hardware decoding for MPEG2, the video compression technology used with DVDs -- which means less CPU power is required when playing DVDs on a computer. The new chip set is available on motherboards from more than 10 companies, including Asustek Computer and Elitegroup Computer Systems Co., AMD said.
