ATi's retro graphics cards lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here.

Common buyer scenarios for retro graphics cards of this kind: matching it to an existing build, replacing a failing part, or upgrading from a previous-generation equivalent.
