That's what high end gamers think...

are there ATi products in Apple Macs?
Does AMD/ATi have anything similar to nVidia's 3xx series with optimus for laptops?

The market is much bigger than just us gamers.]]>May 19th 2010 4:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/May 19th 2010 4:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/iMac's and MacPro's both have ATI graphics options I believe, and they will for some time judging by the cooling requirements of Nvidia's latest cards (in the iMacs atleast).]]>May 19th 2010 4:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/May 19th 2010 3:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/Well, you are getting twice the amount of images ;)]]>May 19th 2010 3:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/May 19th 2010 3:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/May 19th 2010 4:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/May 19th 2010 4:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/May 19th 2010 6:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/May 19th 2010 8:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/May 19th 2010 2:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/

For instance, I run a dual monitor setup, and about barfed when I read this review
http://www.legitreviews.com/article/1258/15/


"After a little more a little more investigation I discovered that the GeForce GTX 480 video card was sitting at 90C in an idle state since I had two monitors installed on my system. I talked with some of the NVIDIA engineers about this 'issue' I was having and found that it wasn't really an issue per say as they do it to prevent screen flickering. This is what NVIDIA said in response to our questions:

"We are currently keeping memory clock high to avoid some screen flicker when changing power states, so for now we are running higher idle power in dual-screen setups. Not sure when/if this will be changed. Also note we're trading off temps for acoustic quality at idle. We could ratchet down the temp, but need to turn up the fan to do so. Our fan control is set to not start increasing fan until we're up near the 80's, so the higher temp is actually by design to keep the acoustics lower." - NVIDIA PR

Regardless what the reasons are behind this, running a two monitor setup will cause your system to literally bake."

I mean, hey, if you live near the Arctic Circle and are in need of a little extra heat, the new Nvidia cards make great space heaters.]]>May 19th 2010 9:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/May 19th 2010 2:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/May 19th 2010 10:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/19/nvidia-3d-vision-surround-delayed-ati-gloats-with-an-eyefinity/
