"Stream Computing is getting big and it will be interesting to see Nvidia's high-end NV55 and other parts sporting double precision units, but without full support for IEEE 754 formats. It will be also very interesting to see what kind of units will be inside R700, R800, R900 and R1K. We're not kidding here, these are all projects in various stages of development inside ATI, with first three architectures being closed, and the development of R1K specs is in progress. Still think AMD will stop developing discrete GPUs? If you believe that, you're probably on something." http://www.theinq.com/default.aspx?article=42297 |

Seems as if Ati is going to be at the tip of the tail of the AMD dog for a very long time. The Intel Developer Conference is revealing some very interesting tidbits that will force AMD to keep its nose (and bulk of its development money) to the CPU development grindstone. If AMD loses the CPU business, ATi will get sold to the highest bidder at pennies on the dollar. AMD is firmly traped between a rock and a hard place with their totally stupid acquisition of ATi - borrowing billions of dollars to pay for weak performer just barely eking out a profit and at a 20% premium.
