Nvidia and Ati

which games are endorsed by ATI
The Way It's Meant To Be Played
A lot of games like crysis supports nvidia
but are there any game that really support ati except Halflife 2
ati does'nt make gaming cards if they do why does'nt any game support ati

 

To sum up your post: which games are endorsed by ATI?

Anything based on the source engine of course, but other than that I can't think of any. All the games I have played recently are endorsed by Nvidia. All it really means is Nvidia paid a sum of money to have their logo appear in the game's loading screens. The game might have also been developed or slightly optimized for Nvidia hardware, but it will of course run on ATI cards.

 

i think Chaz said it best, it's both marketing and slight hardware optimization that goes along with the "certified best for" logo's.

 

nvidia has a lot of money so i pays the develpers to put its name in the game .ati is poor so it cant do that

 

quoted for truth...

 

Hmmmm.... Nintendo supports ATi, lol. It's labelled on the Wii and Gamecube.

 

okej but is'nt it amd which owns ati is amd poor
which one is richest amd or intel

 

ATI FTW! Yay!

 

how come ati is poor if amd owns it amd is richer than intel right

 

lol the way its meant to be played...on an ATI xD

 

i lol'd.

xxxxxxxxxxxx

 

i mean games endoesed by ati

 

if nvidias cards wouldnt optimized to run better in 80% of games today, there would ablot more competition

 

This notebook series of ATI is really good. Don't dis them.

 

i think quake 4 supports all gfx but endorses the use of ATI bacsue it comes up with a list of prefered gfx cards from x300 - xsomething

 

Care to support that one with some evidence?

From what I know (What I've heard from various NVidia people) is no that money is involved. They never pay developers to put up that screen. It simply means that they've tested the game thoroughly on their own hardware, and aided in bugfixing and optimizing the game.
Apparently they have a huge test department (I think it was in Russia) which receives the game, and runs it on every NVidia card, back to front, upside down, with all combinations of graphics settings, with different driver versions and so on. And then they offer help in fixing any problems that are discovered, as well as performance issues.

So it might cost NVidia a fair bit of money, but they don't pay the developer.

I don't know if ATI does the same, or how their system works.

Anyway, Black & White 2 was an ATI game too. There's probably been a few others, but I can't recall any at the moment.

 

Yes, Nintendo does support ATi,
ATi made the Flipper for the Gamecube, "Hollywood" on the Wii...

and, they also made the Xenos for the Xbox 360.

 

quite the opposite i believe
Intel has way more cash to burn than AMD, hence why you see more Intel ads than AMD ones. though AMD is doing better nowadays in advertisements

 

moneywize, intel > amd...
myself, im an ATI guy all the way, especially in desktops, but for every1 here sees how well nvidia is just popping out new laptop cards faster than i can write this post. ATI on the other hand just flopped out there 2600 to have SOMETHIng to compete in the laptop world. Nvidias got SLI in laptops... im curious wen we'll see crossfire. even an ATI guy must choose nvidia for laptops :-/

 

call of juarez
was nvidia game
but when i uppdated it to dx 10
i shows amd and ati logo on the start upp screan .
does any one know that happend. if you know please share

 

ATI just needs to get their drivers together because as of now, they really do suck compared to Nvidias.

 

anyone knows

 

Well Call of Juarez has always been pretty well supported by ATI. The new desktop 3800 series do well on it and crossfire is very well supported compared to other games. No idea why they swapped sponsors though

 

I have always liked ATI, I owned a X800 XT before I bought the 8800GTX, talk about upgrade But as it is now I would never buy an ATI GPU again when they clearly doesn´t support their GPU´s like Nvidia does. Also Nvidia leads the performance race, no ATI card touches the 8800GTX and that is plain bad in my humble opinion. I do really hope that ATI catches up with Nvidia.
