AMD's ATI division continues to keep the pressure on its main graphics card rival Nvidia. Today the company announced the launch of the ATI Radeon HD 4830 graphics card, a full DirectX10.1 supported card that's supposed to be priced at less than $150.The new 4830 card can be set up to use ATI's Crossfire feature which means people can put as many as four graphics cards in one PC for even more performance in games. The product, which is supported by over a dozen graphics card company, is now available for sale. Reviews are already up on sites like FiringSquad and others.

These things are kind of unnecessary considering that 4850s can be found without too much trouble for a mere $5 after rebate. Collect the money from you couch and get the better card. If ATI were to move the 4670s down to $70 and launch the 4830s at $100 they would find a market. As it stands these just clutter up the SKUs even further and confuse the consumers.
