Wer würde nicht einmal gerne die Firmensitze von ATI oder nVidia besuchen, dort die aktuellste Hardware in Augenschein nehmen oder mit den Chefingenieuren zu Mittag essen?
Die Kollegen von AnandTech haben genau dies getan; und in ihrem Artikel lassen sie alle Interessierten teilhaben:
We combined these two companies into one article for one reason in particular - our tours were complementary. ATI imposed very strict restrictions on photographs during our visit to their offices in Thornhill, Ontario; we saw a lot of interesting things at ATI's offices (including the foundation for their fountain of fire in the lobby of their main building) but we weren't able to take pictures of most of them. On the other hand, ATI sat us down with one of their chip architects and we were able to get a wealth of information about how their GPUs were made.
NVIDIA wasn't able to set us up with any engineers for an extended period of time (although lunch with Chief Scientist, David Kirk is always informative) but they were much more lax on the picture front so we were able to bring you more of the behind the scenes from NVIDIA.
Wer sich die Entwicklung eines Graphikchips von Anfang bis Ende nicht entgehen lassen möchte oder sich schon immer gefragt hat, wie es bei ATI und nVidia aussieht: hier entlang ...
