Radeon 7100

The Radeon 7100 is an entry-level graphics card from ATI, part of the Radeon 7000 series, released on April 6, 2001. It is built on the R100 GPU architecture using a 180 nm manufacturing process. The card operates at a core clock of 150 MHz and is equipped with 32 MB of DDR memory, connected via a 128-bit memory bus, providing a memory bandwidth of 4.736 GB/s. With a thermal design power of only 11 W, it is a low-power solution suitable for basic computing tasks. The Radeon 7100 uses an AGP 4x interface, making it compatible with motherboards of that era. It was typically paired with budget CPUs and used for office applications, 2D graphics, and early 3D gaming at low resolutions.
