View Full Version : I just got a All in Wonder radeon 8500dv
I just got it installed and will start messing with the software and features... here is a product link: all in wonder 8500 (http://www.ati.com/na/pages/products/pc/aiw_radeon_8500/index.html)
So far it looks awesome..i was surprised at the amount of accessories it came with...the box was big and heavy. I take some pics too.

Actauly i have been holding out on a ATI card for this reason but it seems ATI cleaned up there act with drivers. The instalation went totaly smooth out the box and has been runing fine for 24 hours now.

Glad you are happy but you could have got it a touch cheaper. You buy at a store close to you or online.
$319 here for retail

you got a nice card
I dont think I would ever pay that kind of money for a card though:D
well maybe if I had a job:p
I got it from the store right next to my house. I didnt have to wait for it tobe shipped, i didnt have to pay shipping, and i got it from a place where get a $400 product warranitied and fixed if anything went bad would be easy.
Well i just got the Tv setup and man is it awesome. The remote control is amazing. I was able to control the computer frmo as far as outside my house. I will do a full thing on this as soon as i get a day off from work.
I just bought this card ($318 on newegg.com!) and love all the features. It is clocked a bit slower out of the box than a regular 8500 but the extra features are great.
I haven't quite gotten it to play tv/dvd fullscreen to the tv while also using the computer like the cute picture on the ATI website implies you can (Dad's doing taxes while the kids watch Spongebob Squarepants or somesuch).
Please let me know if you have any luck with this!
