ATI/Valve Deal - $6,000,000..?

Published by

Interesting article and report over at 3dgpu.com ... while checking ATI's latest earning report, I found this interesting expense that seems to confirm the rumor of how much ATI paid Valve for the Half Life 2 marketing/bundling deal.

"A non-recurring charge of about $6.0 million, consisting of incentive compensation and other charges associated with the signing of a development agreement"

we have in the region of 1000 plus Affiliates! just imagine how many news article, that are sent to us everyday? let alone all you guy's that submit news! we changed the layout a bit as you can see! we try to credit everyone and sometimes we have multiple posts and have to deicide who to credit with the article.

and as to the NV38 seals Nvidia's coffin article

Some peeps called me an ATI fanboy I don't think so, I've had a nvidia card for the last 4 years or the suggestion I did it for Hit's again I don't think so, I've had a bigger article than this since Wednesday! I've spoken to the company involved and as I don't want to cause them an more headaches than they have! you would be shocked, if you knew? to me news is news.

I post articles that I think are news worthy or worth a Debate and I had some Peeps knocking me for not crediting them for the article which I got from www.gamersdepot.com.

I got to say there nothing stopping you from not reading the article if it's that full of BS

And Yes it would be great if Nvidia were a bit more open and did try and help their Customers rather than treating them like Muppets! maybe that's why ATI have a big following.
