ATI talks Xbox 360 in London - console
(hx) 03:27 PM CEST - May,25 2005 - Post a comment / read (3)
Bit-tech.net has posted a news item from today's press conference held by ATI in London. ATI's Rene Froeleke detailed the awesome Anti-Aliasing performance that Microsoft specified for it's Xbox 360 GPU. case, and how ATI have delivered 4xAA 'for free' at a 720p resolution. He was also questioned about why Microsoft chose a 720p resolution over the 1080p resolution that Sony are using in the Playstation 3:
When questionned as to why the minimum wasn't 1080p, Rene responded that most of Europe hadn't even reached 720, let alone 1080.

Because of the embedded DRAM architecture of Xbox 360, the AA was described as 'Absolutely free'.

The technology fulfills all the criteria of Windows Graphics Foundation 1.0, aka DirectX 9.0c, which includes Shader Model 3.0. However, it lacks features which are required for WGF 2.0, most notably the ability to create vertices, rather than just shade and manipulate them.

Whilst the architecture of the 360 is not comparable to a PC design, Rene said that the raw performance would be roughly equivalent to a 32-pipeline PC graphics card. The shared memory technology was 'Definitely not comparable to Hypermemory', ATI's shared memory technology for the PC.

As usual, ATI is out of touch. How about future ATI? so lets see, lets limit our product because "right now" they are only using 720p. Oh wait that's right, in another year Xbox 3 will be out... ah yes.. sorry. Forgot about the 'milking' technology stuff.. Well PS3 is my choice right now. Rather have something that can drive my bigscreen.

I agree XXXX I want an Xbox 360 but if PS3 is offering HD then screw microbloat..However,there is talks that later models may be HD 1080p

I just want to be able to watch the new HD movies when they come out.And wich ever console has that,thats what I'm getting.

I'll try to get both systems as soon as I can when they come out! (time to start saving up $$$!)

FYI: Playstation 3 GPU is still in development!

quote:

Burkett stated that RSX is still in development and that no actual silicon is available yet. In other words, the silicon is not even taped out thus far. If we look at Sony's schedule, we expect that RSX is being finalised right now, and should be taped out before September, and the first silicon will be available nearer Christmas, in time for enough units to be made in the run up to the expected Spring 2006 launch.
