It is not a bad thing to be more PvE centric in a game like Aion.

HI guys

All im going to say is I still believe in AMD

Well if I was to say something about merging then it would be AMD/ATI to merge w/ Nvidia

plus
game’s not over

Quite the opposite. 5 years ago they were closest to Intel. P3’s and P4’s against 2600+ and 3000+ AMD were definitely the go. AMD have been on a downward slope since then.

why would technology stop.. the whole idea is not only to eliminate competition and increase market share, but R&D new products for other markets, will will eventually filter down to us consumers. It’s not all about money, but information and technology, especially patents. Ever tried to get technical docs and sources from AMD if you are developing for an NVidia card.. ? No, didn’t think so….

No secret the next gen GPUs will also be CPU’s. NV haven’t a chance at acquiring Intel, so the logical step is AMD. Killing ATI would be simply the icing on the cake. It’s obviously much cheaper to buy and existing cpu company and their fab plants than making you own, this idea has been speculated on for some time in reagrds to not IF but WHEN it would happen, and between who.

Unfortunately AMD and ATI had this opportunity, which they royally screwed up with poor communication between the 2 entities along with conflicting leadership.

If nVidia takes over AMD it will effectively kill all competitors in the processor and graphics arena, leaving only Intel and nVidia, which is catastrophy for all us PC users. Prices will soar and will be like in the early days of personal computing, the sky is the limit. This would be a disaster for all consumers.

If, I repeat IF this rumor comes true, it looks like we will all be looking to see what INTEL will produce with THEIR standalone video cards by the end of the year.
I know that INTEL has decided to get back into the video market but apart from on-board stuff, I’m not sure how high Intel WANTS to go in the stand alone market, but having to think of them as “the good guys??” would make my brain go boom

Nvidia win end story.

Considering how mutch the 3870X2 pwnz the 4870X2 will be completely insane

Nvidia should seriously just drop their 9800GX2 and move on to next gen asap if they want to keep up because ATI are finaly starting to steam again Cant wait to see who wins the next round xD

As for Nvidia buying AMD, thats been a rumour for a long time but i seriously doubt it…

1. Nvidia said they would never get into CPU manufacturing
2. Nvidia just bought Ageia
3. 1 grafix card maker = loose
Intel has yet to start making and S3 are well, not in the same league..

But agree Nvidia are getting squeesed so cant realy rule anything out.. Intel are making chipsets as good as them now (if not better omglolz) and more and more hate SLI being Nvidia boards only (understandable though but sucks).

WTF!?
I say again WTF!? This leaves me bewildered and confused… I Like nvidia Cards, don’t get me wrong… I prefer them over ATI, but if they’re going to take all of AMD then WTF!? I Love the AMD Processors… They’re cheap, Efficient, and They run everything great… First Yahoo and now this…

I Hope this sh*t stops soon.

“That wouldn’t be a good acquirement in my eyes by any means as it would basically eliminate the competition of ATI at the market and lead to an increasement of prices.”

Acquirement? Increasement? You sound like a man after my own heart. Commencify the bombification of Iran!

OK now maybe you should try to research Google because there are little firms that are trying to create graphic cards, like the old S3 graphics but these are in DX10, and even in DX10.1 so you should`t be surprised if there comes new names on the market, for begining 2 of them are for sure, this thing came because of the Balcans fast evolution in IT tech, you can see what Turkey have done with Crysis. or with Far Cry they dont want Graphic card to be cheaper than the public budget so dont fly with your mind try to walk a lit a bit and watch news, in my country there are IT news because here in the smallest village we have internet even the cow farms have net try to think about the countrys how would they react.

IBM works with everyone. They license IP and manufacturing equipment/techniques, IBM is services company so they simply don’t care, as long as there is a golden pot at the other end of the deal.

NVidia is not going to buy AMD, they can’t, for one the Anti-monopoly in UE would never let them.

Second it does not make any business sense. AMD is still going over the transition with ATI, the merger process is not yet complete, very bad timing.

Second Intel Buying NVidia is more of a possibility to me, even though Intel is the number one GFX player, they have low end gfx products, the server and workstation products like Quadro and Tesla and other high profit markets is something Intel might get into, also they have the 64 core processor they have to put some IP into that gfx and physics is the most likely application.

The mobile market is going to explode in 2010 so one of these companies is probably going to buy PowerVR – Imagination Technologies…

I seriously doubt NVidia will get into a huge merger, specially with AMD, NVidia’s CEO is a very smart dude.

does IBM even care about the consumer market anymore? Just because AMD works with IBM doesn’t mean IBM are silent partners. IBM worked with Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo too.
