About ATI Radeon X1300 XT
The ATI Radeon X1300 XT is an AMD graphics card built around the RV530 chip and the Ultra-Threaded SE architecture, placed in the Radeon R500 PCIe (X1300) generation. TSMC fabricates the chip on a 90 nm process, with 157 million transistors in a 150 mm² die, producing a transistor density of 1.0M / mm². The card has 256 MB of DDR2 memory on a 128-bit bus, with a memory clock of 400 MHz (800 Mbps effective) and 12.80 GB/s of bandwidth. It uses 4 texture mapping units and 4 ROPs to reach pixel and texture rates of 2.000 GPixel/s and 2.000 GTexel/s. The board is rated at 22 W, has no power connectors, lists a 200 W suggested PSU, and is a single-slot design. It connects over PCIe 1.0 x16 and outputs through one DVI, one VGA, and one S-Video. The production status is end-of-life, with a release date of 2006-08-11, a predecessor of Radeon R400 PCIe, and a successor of Radeon R600. In the database, the card has a 50th percentile standing among all GPUs, an average benchmark score of 0, and an empty benchmarks array.
Benchmark Performance
The benchmark section of the record contains no entries. The average benchmark score is 0, and the nearestRivals list is empty. Therefore no exact percentage deltas over another product can be reported. The only relative metric is the 50th percentile versus all GPUs. That percentile appears without any supporting average benchmark score; a percentile with zero averaged runs does not demonstrate where the card lands in a particular workload. The record's benchmark score of 0 is not a performance result from a test suite but a placeholder reflecting the absence of collected scores.
What can be analyzed are the throughput numbers the architecture is specified to produce. The X1300 XT is configured for 2.000 GPixel/s pixel fill and 2.000 GTexel/s texture fill, using 4 TMUs and 4 ROPs. Those fixed-function rates, along with a memory bandwidth of 12.80 GB/s, are the hardware limits from which any workload behavior would follow. Without stored benchmark runs, there is no measured evidence of how those limits translate into frame rates, resolution scaling, or settings scaling. The absence of a nearestRivals list reinforces that the database has no comparison scores for this card. Any sentence stating that the card is a certain percentage faster or slower than a competitor would have to come from a deltaPct value in the fact pack, and no such value is present.
The 50th percentile is the only comparative data point. But an average score of 0 and an empty benchmarks array mean the percentile cannot be checked against actual runs. A builder browsing the database should treat the percentile as an unverified placeholder rather than as a tested result. The data instead points to the specification sheet: 256 MB of DDR2, a 128-bit bus, 12.80 GB/s of bandwidth, 2.000 GPixel/s of pixel throughput, and 2.000 GTexel/s of texture throughput. These values describe the card's designed throughput ceiling, but not its measured standing against other GPUs.
How It Compares
The nearestRivals field in the fact pack is empty. There are no rival names, no rival scores, and no deltaPct values to work from. As a result, no per-rival comparison with exact percentages can be produced from the record. The only stack information available in the record is the predecessor and successor fields: the X1300 XT sits after the Radeon R400 PCIe line and before the Radeon R600 line. Within the Radeon R500 PCIe (X1300) generation, it uses the RV530 chip and the Ultra-Threaded SE architecture. The database does not list another product in that generation as a nearest rival, so no relative positioning within the generation is recorded.
The generation context is still useful. The Radeon R500 PCIe generation, the Ultra-Threaded SE architecture, and the DirectX 9.0c (9_3) / OpenGL 2.1 API set define the software era this card was designed for. The 50th percentile versus all GPUs is the only rank in the database, but with an average benchmark score of 0, that rank cannot be expressed as a percentage lead or deficit over a named product. Comparing this card to any other product would require either a nearestRivals entry or benchmark scores, and neither exists in the fact pack. What can be compared at the specification level are the on-paper resources: 4 TMUs, 4 ROPs, 256 MB DDR2, 128-bit bus, 12.80 GB/s, 2.000 GPixel/s, 2.000 GTexel/s, 22 W TDP, no power connectors, and a 200 W suggested PSU. These numbers define the card, but they do not define a rival because no rival is recorded.
Who Should Consider It
Because the record contains no benchmark scores, any resolution-and-settings recommendation would be unsupported by the data. What the data does show is a low-power, single-slot board that draws 22 W, requires no power connectors, and lists a 200 W suggested PSU. That makes it easy to fit into a system with modest PCIe 1.0 x16 power delivery and cooling. The API table lists DirectX 9.0c (9_3) and OpenGL 2.1; Vulkan is not listed. The intended software set is therefore applications written for those APIs. The memory subsystem of 256 MB DDR2 with 12.80 GB/s of bandwidth defines the working set: textures, geometry, and render targets must fit in 256 MB. For workloads where that capacity is enough, the card has the fill rate and texture rate to process 2.000 GPixel/s and 2.000 GTexel/s.
The absence of benchmark data means no measured recommendation for a particular resolution can be made. The pixel rate and texture rate are fixed at 2.000 GPixel/s and 2.000 GTexel/s, and the memory interface is 128 bits wide, but the fact pack does not reveal how these interact under load. A user considering this card for high-resolution settings would be relying on assumption rather than on benchmark results. For users with DirectX 9.0c-era software that fits within the 256 MB frame buffer, the card's low power draw and single-slot footprint are clear advantages. For users expecting modern high-resolution performance, the database offers no numbers to support that expectation. The card is end-of-life, so the practical context is an older system or a period-correct build, not a current high-end gaming configuration.

Ray Tracing and Feature Set
The fact pack lists no RT cores and no tensor cores for the ATI Radeon X1300 XT. The API support is DirectX 9.0c (9_3) and OpenGL 2.1, with a null Vulkan field. That means the recorded feature set does not include a Vulkan entry. The architecture is Ultra-Threaded SE, and the generation is Radeon R500 PCIe (X1300), which places the feature set in the DirectX 9.0c era. The available compute-style throughput is defined by 4 TMUs, 4 ROPs, 2.000 GPixel/s pixel rate, and 2.000 GTexel/s texture rate. The display output stage is one DVI, one VGA, and one S-Video. The card's power profile remains low: 22 W TDP, no power connectors, 200 W suggested PSU, and a single-slot layout. Without RT or tensor entries, there are no ray tracing or tensor workload records for this card.
Memory Subsystem
The memory subsystem consists of 256 MB of DDR2 on a 128-bit bus. The memory clock is 400 MHz, with an 800 Mbps effective data rate, resulting in 12.80 GB/s of bandwidth. This bandwidth is the data path for the card's fill and texture rates. The pixel rate is 2.000 GPixel/s and the texture rate is 2.000 GTexel/s, each produced by 4 ROPs and 4 TMUs respectively. A 256 MB frame buffer is the maximum local storage for color, depth, and texture data at any moment. For high-resolution workloads, that capacity is a hard constraint, but the fact pack contains no benchmark runs demonstrating the degree of that constraint. The 128-bit bus width and 12.80 GB/s bandwidth are the only memory performance values in the record. The database's average benchmark score of 0 and empty benchmarks array mean there is no measured bandwidth scaling data. In practical terms, the memory system is small and narrow, but the exact impact on frame times is not recorded in the fact pack.
