ATI will get Physics if...it adopts Cuda

@ 2008/06/08
In our recent talks with Roy Taylor, the VP of The Way It’s Meant To Be Played, we've learned an interesting fact: that AMD/ATI can get Physics support. All AMD needs in order to be able to support PhysX is to adopt Cuda.

ATI has its own GPGPU program, but we guess Cuda support on top of it won’t hurt them, as they would need Cuda to run PhysX on ATI-based cards. You need PhysX for games and Nvidia will make it The Way It’s Meant To Be Played, and there won’t be much that ATI will be able to do about it.

Might not be a bad idea to have one software platform that runs on both nV/ATI hardware. It's as logic as having one platform for Intel and AMD hardware, imho.
