@ 2005/08/23No doubt about it, in the race to deliver a dual GPU PCIe graphics solution to the market, NVIDIA not only convincingly beat ATi Technologies out of the stable door, but some might think that, since the launch of its SLi in November last year, its kicked the stable door shut .
However details have emerged that part of the reason for the delays in ATi bringing its competitor to NVIDIA’s SLi to market, is that its been trying to ensure that the products it does release are significantly more flexible, and thus have a broader commercial appeal, than NVIDIAs.
Indeed it’s claimed that as far back as December 2004, ATi Technologies in Santa Clara had a functioning dual-graphics card solution, then called ATi MVP (Multi Visual Processing), running on Intel processor platforms.
