Bleeding Edge TV 168: AMD vs. Intel: Chipset War
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Full Episodes, Gizmatic, Head To Head, High Score, Features, PC / Laptop, Video Games, Videocasts,
While hanging out in the AMD Performance Lab, Pat Moorhead sat down with us to give us a head to head look at a basic Intel G965 chipset up against the AMD 690 series chipset, focusing on gaming performance. These are the off-the-shelf computers you would buy at low cost for $500-800 or so, using integrated graphics chips. You gotta see this side-by-side comparison to see just how amazing the results of the AMD-ATi merger are.
Oh, and obviously, these tests were done in an AMD lab. However, just like it was mentioned in the Performance Lab video, if you want the scripts to do any of these tests yourself, all you have to do is ask. Drop an email to mark.welker@amd.com or pat.moorhead@amd.com and they will hook you up.

Bleeding Edge TV 167: Inside AMD’s Performance Testing Lab
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Full Episodes, Gizmatic, High Score, Features, PC / Laptop, Video Games, Videocasts,
While we were out visiting AMD, they gave us the opportunity to enter their Performance Testing Lab, an area guarded by dual steel doors that seemingly required both a key and special knocking code in order to enter. Once inside and sure that our lives were safe, we spoke with Mark Welker about how AMD tests their chip technologies across different platforms, software, and games. He talks to us about benchmarks, what they mean in the real world, and how they can be gamed to show what you want them to show. Even better, Mark gives out his corporate email address and offers to send the performance testing scripts to anyone who asks so that people at home can do it themselves. Just drop him an email at mark.welker@amd.com and tell him Gear Live sent you. Check the video for the full scoop.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Full Episodes, Gizmatic, Corporate News, Features, Home Entertainment, PC / Laptop, Video Games, Videocasts,
Seems everyone wants to get into the business of streaming content both from the Internet and from your home network, to your television. Of course, we are of the opinion that in as little as ten years time, this will be the way most television entertainment is consumed in the first place, so it only makes sense that companies start getting on the ball now. AMD recently gave us a look and demo of their Active TV softwawre. This aims to bridge the gap between video and other content found on your home computer, along with that found on the Internet.
