AMD Briefing With Eric Demers - We have posted and AMD slide deck that was the basis of a meeting with AMD GPU CTO Eric Demers yesterday. Some interesting points are being made by AMD.
We spent about 30 minutes with AMD's CTO of Graphics Eric Demers yesterday, talking about what AMD thinks about the recently "paper announced" Fermi GPU from NVIDIA. I am not going to editorialize a lot here except to say I find very little I can disagree with AMD on this. While Fermi looks to be an incredible compute machine, it seems that AMD is already doing a lot of what Fermi is only promising to do at this point. On the gaming front, we know the 5870 / 5850 and 5770 / 5750 series GPUs already kick ass and are being sold while we are still waiting for NVIDIA to even discuss gaming with Fermi.
