AMD Gives the Axe to ATI Brand

If you didn’t know (and you should), AMD owns ATI. Now that we settled that, the micro processor manufacturer is finally throwing out the ATI brand. They will keep the names of the product lines, such as Radeon, Eyefinity, and FirePro, but instead of it being called ATI Radeon, it will now be known as AMD Radeon.

This really isn’t a huge surprise. Some people have already been referring to ATI as AMD, even though it was still ATI. And they both sound the same anyway; three letters, both start with ‘A’, both are medioc…..erm…..you get the picture.

    I wouldn’t call them mediocre especially if you count the past 2 years. Their recent showing in the gpu side has been excellent. Offering great cards that are not only effecient but also well priced. Something that can’t be said about nvidias latest showing( except the 460 ), run hot, consumes alot more energy and with horrible pricing compared to ati/amd’s card.
