ATI Announces ATI Physics by Supporting the Havok FX Engine

By

ATI Technologies Inc. is loosening the ties that bind gamers to their physical realities by immersing them in a simulation more complete than anything they’ve seen before. The ‘boundless gaming’ experience is created by combining the rendering horsepower of two ATI graphics cards with a third devoted to modeling the environment. ATI, like NVIDIA, will be supporting the Havok FX engine which is looking better every day. With ATI and NVIDIA teamed up with Havok could this be the end for AGEIA and their PhysX processor?

ATI physics lets developers deliver true-to-life representations of reality in games, thanks to the superior parallel processing architecture of ATI’s Radeon X1K GPUs. The Radeon X1900 XTX is one the highest performing physics processor available today, delivering a whopping 360 Gflops of processing power. Gamers will be able to enjoy scenes with 20,000 to 30,000 distinct objects that can now be accurately simulated and rendered at real-time frame rates, providing a more immersive experience.
