In case you missed it, the ATI name will cease to be used before the end of the year - thereby killing off 20+ years of innovation, etc.
Newer AMD cards will not carry the name. _________________  |

Yeah, it was officially announced in September I think. And they will kill the ATI brand on friday (yes, two days from now), when AMD Radeon HD6800 cards are released
 . They will be part of the so called "AMD Vision" department. |

AMD wanted to merge with nVidia initially, when Intel Larrabee seemed a huge threat. It's said , for the most part, not happened because Jen Hsun wanted to be CEO after merger.
Intel also wanted to make LCOS TV's *.  They should get their act together at least, I want sound rendering and stream compute stuff.BTW looks like there was some AMD meet and they demo'ed 3d extensively. * http://pro.sony.com/bbsccms/assets/file ... r_v3-1.pdf http://forums.soundandvisionmag.com/sho ... -Article... _________________ -Biased for 0 Gen HMD's to hell and back must be one hundred percent hell bent bias! |

Yeah, this is said. ATI was a good name (even though I stopped buying them as soon as I found out about s3d). I guess they want to strengthen the AMD name, which has been losing bigtime to Intel.

Hope it works well, should finally allow me to do my dual projector (side-by-side) setup. |

nVidia will do 1 or 3. I mistook their product literature for meaning up to 3. They do not support 2 monitors in their surround mode.
ATI supports basically any number of monitors (up to 6) with eyefinity. |
