The CrossFire Xpress 3200 die is so small because it is manufactured on TSMC's 0.11 micron low-K process node. Using TSMC's .11 low-K process also helps ensure the chip requires less power to operate reliably. In this case, ATI is claiming a TDP of 8 Watts for the CrossFire Xpress 3200.

U krajnjem slučaju 8W disipacije samo u idlu opet nije loše.
