Early reference boards based on the AMD versions of the chipset were codenamed 'Bullhead' and later 'Grouper'.With SB460 supports only maximum 2 ATA devices. Note that SB450 have not implemented any network and Gigabit Ethernet PHY. For the SB450, it supports 2 ATA channels (2 devices per channel), 2 SATA 1.5 Gbit/s interface (4 drives total) with RAID 0, RAID 1 and RAID 0+1 support, 7 PCI slots, together with 8 USB support, HD Audio codec support. Southbridges can be chosen between ATI SB450, SB460 and ULi M1575.
ATI RADEON XPRESS 200 SPECIFICATIONS UPGRADE
The Radeon Xpress 200M (RS482) chipset is an upgrade to the RS480 chipset which still uses the branding, with the distinction of abandoning sideport memory support (as frame buffer) for Z-buffer data compression support. Motherboard manufacturers were able to replace the SB400 southbridge with the M1573 southbridge from ULi for more versatile configuration, as well as avoiding the frequently criticized USB performance issues with ATI southbridges. The Radeon Xpress 200 (RS480) chipset can make use of different southbridges, one of them is the SB400 (IXP 400), providing 2 ATA channels (2 devices per channel), 2 SATA 1.5 Gbit/s interface (4 drives total) with RAID 0, RAID 1 and RAID 0+1 support, 7 PCI slots, 8 USB 2.0 and AC'97 codec for 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound support. Later renamed as Radeon Xpress 1150 for Intel notebooks/desktops with a 100 MHz increase in core clock speed (400 MHz from originally 350 MHz for 200M chipset, from originally 300 MHz for Xpress 1100 chipset ).Renamed as AMD 480X CrossFire chipset after the acquisition of AMD and ATI, with Intel CrossFire chipset retained the use of Radeon Xpress 200 CrossFire chipset.

It is designed to compete with nVidia's SLI technology.

After the takeover from AMD, AMD renamed the Crossfire Xpress 1600 chipset for AMD socket AM2 platform to the AMD 480X CrossFire chipset. Additionally, it includes support for DDR400 RAM and DDR-2 667 RAM on the Intel Edition.ĪTI renamed its Radeon Xpress 200 Crossfire Edition chipset to CrossFire Xpress 1600. The chipset supports AMD 64-bit processors ( Socket 939 and Socket 754) as well as supporting Intel Pentium 4, Pentium D and Celeron processors ( LGA 775 and Socket 478). The Radeon Xpress 200 is a computer chipset released by ATI.
