I keep hearing shit about this Fusion shit. but all i hear is talk. talk talk talk. platform this platform that. its all bullshit. i love AMD. but this is some sereous BS coming from AMD.
I think you'll find that the use of fusion in AMDs slogan is nothing to do with the upcoming fusion chip in 2011 but because of a CPU company (AMD) & a GPU company (ATI) coming together & merging into one company, hence the word fusion
Well its retarded because you get no performance increase at all. these 2 components do not work any better when in the same system. as a matter of fact i bileve an ATI card in an Intel system to be the optimal setup.
But when you can spend that same money on an AMD platform and putting the money saved towards something like another graphics card, or an upgraded one, or a BluRay player, etc, the AMD system looks mighty attractive.
As long as you run INTEL processors with INTEL chipsets, you can run ATI just as fast as AMD's chipsets, because INTEL bought the rights to use ATI hardware in their chipsets, enabling CROSSFIRE in INTEL chipsets, hence why Nvidia SLI is shit.
We can all agree that INTEL makes the BEST chipsets on the market, EVEN IF they are overpriced. They bought into ATI technology for a reason.
ATI and AMD have been the same company for years man, where you been? Last card ATI made before it was bought by AMD was the 9000 series. AMD is what made ATI great, anyone who was a gamer back in those days would know that Nvidia was better than ATI during the 9000 series dates. Then AMD helped ATI step up with AMD's technological research.
bull. ATI was working on the R600 when AMD was considering buying them.
As for everyone else, AMD currently has the best gpu and that's it. They have good cpus, but not the best cpus. They have good chipsets, but not the best chipsets. They didn't always have the best GPU's.
And you know what, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. If you want to spend $1800+ on an intel rig that will rarely give a visible and obvious advantage over a high end amd system, be my guest.
I don't use intel? when did I say I used intel? rofl
I use AMD ATI, but if you go back, although ATI was "working" on the R600, AMD was the one who made it "great". If it wasn't for AMD, ATI wouldn't be as good as they are. AMD is amazing and they moved that style of progress to their graphics cards.
if you read what I said, I didn't say anything against them, I love AMD. My AMD6000x2 with a 4870 1Gb gets the same frame rates as those with i7's. though, other applications are lacking...

I'm sticking with AMD.

Some people do not seem to understand the words "As for everyone else"... I may or may not try to be more clear in the future.
