AMD to buy ATI

July 24, 2006

I know I’ve been gone for some time, and I typically don’t have the time for news reporting anymore, but I couldn’t pass this one up. I’m a big fan of both AMD and ATI, so I’m quite happy to hear that AMD will be buying out ATI. My PC has an AMD chip as well as an ATI video card in it, and I’ve been very pleased.

I know we all have out favorites, and some of you prefer Intel and/or Nvidia, but for gaming, I think that AMD and ATI are a nice combination. I’m sure with the likely plans of them being designed to really work well together, we’ll be seeing some excellent performance down the road.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’ll be a good year before we see any active changes because of this though. Even so… hooray!
