Summary
ATI's All-In-Wonder X600 Pro improves upon its predecessors in many ways and falls short in others. By combining gaming and multimedia benefits into a single card, owners of PCI-Express based systems can have the best of both worlds for an affordable price. ATI has improved the dongle which you use for audio/video connections by allowing it to physically screw into the card to make it more secure. There are also plenty of audio and video connections to make the casual user very happy. Hardcore gamers or multimedia buffs will want to upgrade to the X800 XT All-In-Wonder card which includes support for component video output, a faster processor and their Remote Wonder remote control.
We like that ATI's media player supports RealMedia, DivX and Microsoft Windows Media Video 9 codecs, but the player including the Guide Plus+ software looks outdated and can feel very slow at times. We loved the new interface that ATI is using with their TV Wonder Elite and would love to have seen the same interface used in their All-In-Wonder line, especially since they are a more expensive product. The TV Wonder Elite also does a better job of cleaning up the analog cable broadcast than the ATI All-In-Wonder x600 Pro giving a much better looking picture.
The ATI All-In-Wonder X600 Pro is a good multimedia solution for under $250 dollars. It comes with a solid software package, including built-in PVR capabilities and the ability to create and edit your own movies.
