Just noticed that you posted this, nvidia chipsets have not been that great recently, Especially chipsets for AMD.

From the nForce 2/3/4 thru the nForce 590, they were the best chipsets you could get for AMD. Most SIS and VIA sucked and ATI was only good for crossfire. It wasnt untill AMD bought ATI and released the 700 series that Nvidia lost it will AMD. Now you just buy a Nvidia chipset if your bound to run SLI. Tables turned.
Dont really know what Nvidias future is in Motherboard chipsets. They are being kicked from both directions now.

Well, im referring to recent chipsets here. But yes, the nForce 2-5 were excellent chipsets.
Intel is being more hardnose about giving Nvidia chipset licences then AMD. AMD since they own ATI, they just dont want SLI running on their chipsets, cant blame them really
. I would say once Intel releases their own GPU, Nvidia might start feeling their world getting smaller.

Yeah, it may be around the time nvidia releases a system that doesnt even requre a CPU(GPGPU kind of thing). Intel is not licensing 1366, so nvidia cannot compete with the X58 chipset.Intel is being more hardnose about giving Nvidia chipset licences then AMD.

In 10 years, the world of computing as we know it now will probably be vastly different.

I thought AMD made ATI.
AMD bought ATI back in 2006.

So ATI was it own company?

For quite a long period of time, yes.
Yeah, ATI has been around since the mid to late 80s. Made Chipsets and GPUs. AMD chipsets sucked and they wanted to get into the GPU market and got a chipset company along with it. Changed the name of the chipsets to AMD but left the ATI name on the GPUs. I would say in time AMD will change the GPUs to AMD too.

I kinda doubt they will. AMD had invested a lot of time and money in rebuilding the ATI brand to where it is now. Changing it's name now would not be in there best interest.

I had to chuckle when I read that.
