AMD-ATI "Fusion" Full Speed Ahead

internetnews.com

Intel (Quote) confirmed its plans to do just that.

"We haven't given a timeframe yet, but we've stated our intention to integrate graphics, we have that capability," said George Alfs, a spokesman for the chip giant. "Intel is the number one provider of graphics solutions in the market and we know graphics."

Analyst Jon Peddie of Jon Peddie Research, said AMD has an advantage over Intel with its integrated memory controller. "Adding graphics isn't going to be trivial, but it'll be easier for AMD than Intel," said Peddie.

"Intel has to get rid of its frontside bus before it can think about integrating graphics, so we don't think they'll even announce anything like what AMD is doing until 2008. We think AMD has a two-year lead on this kind of configuration."


Care to rebut, smooth2o?
