AMD's Hammer goes graphics crazy
Source: The Register
AMD is spinning up the sales story for its bifurcated 64-bit chip brands, the Opteron and the Athlon (as its uniprocessor version is to be called).
It'll be several months before any of the damn things reach the public, but that won't stop AMD's PR bunnies from teasing out the announcements.
Today, for example is graphics support day, and what a list we have: 3DLabs ATI, Matrox and SiS say they will develop graphics cards for AMD's 64-bit platform(s). So where is Nvidia, then? Always the bridesmaid and never the bride in the press releases of CPU makers, it is beginning to appear. But we thought Nvidia and AMD were friends.
