Radeon HD 2400 

Stalker's vast outside world is richly modelled, you can interact with a large number of objects in the game thanks to the physics engine.

The real-time strategy game Company of Heroes is set during World War II where you take two american companies through several fights all over France to liberate the country from German occupation.

The HD 2400 Series is a budget/OEM/office card.

The temperature controlled fan does a good job at keeping the card cool.

Fan speeds are adjusted by temperature.

The temperature controlled fan is a welcome feature to keep the annoying fan noise down.

Since the final cards will not use a CrossFire adapter, I assume this design was mainly used for testing and developing the cards.

This means that you can just put two 2400 XT cards into your PC, click "Enable CrossFire" and it works without any additional cables or connectors.

When looking closely at the upper part we can see that there are almost no components except for the CrossFire connector and the debug test port.

ATI's RV6xx GPUs use a new dynamic clock mechanism that dynamically selects the clock speed based on GPU load.

The back of the card is completely standard, it has two of the four memory chips on it.

The naked card shows that the major components on the card are just GPU and memory.

On the other hand if you are in the market for a new card the price difference between X1300 and 2400 XT is so small that you can just get the 2400 XT for the additional features at almost no extra cost.

A great price for the feature set the card delivers.

9.0With a price of only $79 for the XT version and even less for the Pro version, the HD 2400 XT is sitting in a niche that is mainly reserved for office PCs.
