AMD focusing on multi-GPUs for future graphics cards
ATI plans to focus their efforts on developing smaller, more energy efficient GPUs for the mainstream market, and then integrating multiple chips into one card for the high-end crowd.
We took two chips and put it on one board (X2). By doing that we have a smaller chip that is much more power efficient.
We believe this is a much stronger strategy than going for a huge, monolithic chip that is very expensive and eats a lot of power and really can only be used for a small portion of the market.
