Delivering
true-to-life gaming reality
 ATI brings a whole new world of gaming
with the introduction of physics processing on the ATI GPU as
part of the ATI CrossFire platform. Now, in addition to dual-card
CrossFire™ graphics, a third ATI Radeon™ X1000 series
card can be used to deliver the most powerful physics processing
performance available for the most true-to-life representations
of reality possible. This potent new combination of the highest
quality dual graphics solution with incredible physics processing
capacity brings gamers the best looking, most immersive game
experience possible, on the highest performing PC platform ever
conceived, ATI CrossFire.
ATI CrossFire offers gamers a choice of physics configurations
rather than being locked into symmetrical setups. This flexible
architecture allows asymmetrical configurations as unlike cards
can be used for physics processing in both 1+1 and 2+1 setups
where one or two graphics cards are used for game rendering,
while another card is used for physics. This open architecture
accommodates all gamers, whether they want to use a high-end
graphics card for physics, or a mainstream card.
 
 ATI is working with Havok and their Havok FX™ effects
physics engine which enables game developers to produce more
convincing environments that include richer, more detailed explosions,
smoke, debris, fluids, cloth and hair.
