AMD - Image 1AMD isn't done serving the little market they managed to carve out of an idea brought about by Epic Games' Mark Rein.

AMD - Image 1It's like a geek's dream come true - two ladies you've always wanted for the price (and mass-energy ratio) of one. Or something like that.

Everyone expected this from the beginning: the unison of CPU (AMD) and the GPU (ATI) into a mesmerizing package. How it took this long to come to realization, you won't find out at the full story. Read on for more claims, instead.

NVIDIA Graphics updates - Image 1Okay, so it's not the biggest gun that NVIDIA's got in their arsenal yet, but seeing as AMD is solidly taking the lead in the performance per unit price race, this was expected. You might recall that the NVIDIA GeForce 9800 wasn't as greatly embraced by the 8800 GTX crowd when the first benched numbers spilled on the Internet. NVIDIA took the G92-spec card and made two SKUs out of the process: a 9800 GTX+ and a 9800 GT. More at the full story.

ATI Radeon Graphics updates - Image 1NVIDIA may be sticking to monolithic graphic cards, but AMD sure as hell isn't.

If you banked money on that, you'd better collect - Guru3D says they've just received the prototype of the top-of-the-line, dual-GPU RV770-spec graphics card that's tied to just one generic name: the ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2. Wipe off the drool, and get more details at the full story.
