I read a bit on...
http://www.theinquirer.net/gb/inquirer/news/2008/08/01/why-amd-should-merge-nvidiaThey have to now really do they not?
AMD CPU chips cocked up with their multi cores of late and are not doing very well right now and they have made a big mess of the ATI cards, there are good ones being released but its not all that.
Nvidia have recently had a mass recall and a total balls up of their mobo chip sets and They are going stupid with the graphics cards they do games a mental goodness but they are getting too power hungry and to big.
Intel are looking to have multi core cpus with 1/2 core graphics processing built into them as well as their own mobo chip set and their CPUs currently are very good and doing well.
AMD and Nvidia need to merge, they need to sit down sort out their CPUs and get them rolling out better and work together to develop better Graphics cards, multi core GPUs and Full cards that are not stupidly big. Work to take the good from Xfire and what makes SLI good and develop great motherboard chips again.
Both need to sack their driver teams and hire some of these 3rd party chaps who do a great job as well as new staff from where ever.
Would be a mess to start with, with both shipping out their stuff currently still in the pipeline and it will be hard for a bit but I think for them and Us it would be worth it as both are a mess right now.
Thoughts?
