ATI chickens out from ménage a trois

Computex 2006 Flight of fantasy too far

THE ORIGINAL NAME for ATI's Physics was actually rather risque.

The company was for a name for its 2+1 GPU concept in a really original way. It looks like a couple of engineers really wanted to make their paper presentation a bit funny.

Maybe the legal dept. didn't clear the name, or perhaps the connotations stretched prospective new American owners' sensibilities. Or something like that.

So the new name is "Boundless Gaming", which of course, is only valid if you're using a bounded platform, Intel D975XBX motherboard.

You can read all the info about the tech in Charlie's article here.

Here's the slide. µ
