The head of graphics product group of Advanced Micro Devices, the former ATI Technologies, said in an interview that the recently introduced Nvidia Corp.’s GeForce GTX 200 graphics processing unit (GPU) was the last high-end monolithic “megachip”. The comment follows vows by high-ranking Nvidia execs to continue making high-end graphics chips that are massive in size and costly in price.

“I predict our competitor will go down the same path for its next GPU once they see this. They have made their last monolithic GPU,” said Rick Bergman, the vice president of AMD who heads graphics product group, reports EETimes web-site.
