Nvidia on the ropes ?? ATI/Intel to do GPU on PS4 etc

[loki]

Interesting story on The Inquirer about Intel/AMD have agreed to do the gpu for PS4, XB3 and Wii2. In as much as Nvidia have took that great big shotgun and managed to blow off one foot then the other, you can't really have much sympathy for them. That said will this represent good value for us consumers.

Given a choice of GPU in my PC I would always choose ATI as I think there graphic drivers are more stable in the long run, but it's nice to have a choice.

FOR THE NEXT next generation of consoles, PS4, XBox3 and Wii2, it looks like Intel is in, Nvidia is out. The picture for their GPUs is starting to become clear.

Yeah, Intel won the PS4 GPU, no shock considering how much they needed a console win to get people coding for Larrabee. They can either convince companies to put in a code path for the chip in Big Budget Mediocre Sequel 7: Vengeance of the Farmland Creatures by sending people with wads of money and begging, or get a console win. They got a console win, and it was the right way to go.
