Driver support scheduled for release in 2010 Requires application support for ATI Stream technology Digital rights management restrictions may apply ATI CrossFireXTM technology requires an ATI CrossFireX Ready motherboard, and may require a specialized power supply ATI PowerPlayTM, ATI AvivoTM and ATI Stream are technology platforms that include a broad set of capabilities offered by certain ATI RadeonTM HD GPUs. Not all products have all features and full enablement of some capabilities and may require complementary products Upscaling subject to available monitor resolution Not available with Blu-ray picture-in-picture May not be available for all desktop resolutions with Windows Aero enabled Adobe Flash video acceleration and post-processing is supported for H.264-encoded content. Requires Adobe Flash Player 10.1 plug-in and Catalyst 9.11 or higher. Blu-ray or HD DVD drive and HD monitor required Requires Blu-ray movie disc supporting dual streams or picture-in-picture Playing HDCP content requires additional HDCP ready components, including but not limited to an HDCP ready monitor, Blu-ray or HD DVD disc drive, multimedia application and computer operating system. Some custom resolutions require user configuration
