When it comes to buying video cards, one of the most important factors is cost. Money doesn’t grow on trees and you pretty much get what you pay for in the world of video cards. Today we are going to look into ATI’s current mainstream market segment. The mainstream segment is just that, geared for the mainstream folk. These are people that don’t have $400-500 to spend or don't want to spend that money on a new video card, but want something a little bit better than what the value segment offers at $100. This $200 price point is much more affordable and offers video cards that can indeed play the latest games. There may be a few sacrifices compared to enthusiast level video cards, but they are video cards capable of delivering a good gaming experience.
