aegis, i totgally agree with you. there was also a rumor a while ago about amd buying nvidia, but nvidia is just too big and too expensive. http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory?id=2228494 abc news confims this too. well i guess that amd is buying ati... im just not sure if this is smart. i love the nvidia chipsets, i rly hope nvidia will still make them for amd. i also wonder if amd will work on something that will help amd cpu's and ati gpu's talk to eachother faster/better.
