The ignorance towards AMD/ATI is staggering here, You sound like a bunch of Console fanboys!
Which is funny since I see some of the same people here that have *****ed about PS3 lock-in instead of 360 while the 360 runs an ATi card
Originally by: Mikal Morataya
Rather than all the fanboy flaming, can someone describe what will be different losing this feature on my ATI card, worse performance? Worse looking game?
It's going to be possibly slightly better performance for a slightly worse look

Considering the quality of Nvidia fanboys' (and maybe marketing alts) posts so far it's very evident why they fell for the PPU scam. 
But anyway, unless CCP actually implements multithreading support for software Physx and other improvements supposedly made available to developers by Nvidia there can be a very noticeable and sometimes unplayable drops in performance due to intentionally crippled Physx. Just as it has happened in all those other crappy Physx games out there. and in the end that is all I care about and what will affect my decision to continue playing or not. |

With ATI cards you will see some details disappear. For example, women will lose their clothes... HeH HeH HeH

I'm waiting for the whine thread about the performance hit for those people with cheapass nvidia cards thinking their game is going to look all shiney with this enabled instead of the inevitable slideshow they'll get

If you are working with nvidia or ati gaming cards, your boss should be shoot into his face. But as you just made **** up, its not that bad ;-)
Why a forum in the year 2011 still has no automatic double post merge which can be done even with javascript mostly is beyond my understanding. |

This is what i understand of it:
Ssao allows for dark corners on models to be dark, and to illimunate a room with light passing through a small crack in a wall. In eve it makes ships feel more real due to better lighting effects on them.

If you bothered reading my OP and followed some links youŠd maybe know?
Or rather guess as we all do. As even after 12 hours a DEV still hasnŠt managed to surprise us with an actual explanation.
And no this isnŠt because of patchday. Last I heard GFX guys donŠt do server and client patch stuff.

to all you nvidia suckers out thier i was a voodoo fan nvidia and its dual gpu technology is based on stolen ideas from voodo and they still cant get it right ,they refused to support voodoo cards of which i had the dual gpu 5500 from this refusal to support a customer who paid over 700 dollars for the best card on the market at the time made them instantly loose this customer i have been with ati ever since and will never spend moey on thiefs tech, intel are the same they introduced the dns chip can turn it on anytime with out your knowledge again lost another customer i use amd 6 core at mo, i get with a minimum 8 mg commection can run 2 eve clients at max settings with no lag and avcerage about 90 fps per client **** nvidia and intel and we all know why CCP are in bed with intel and nvidia cuase they all use monkey code

Get the hint: ATI are 2nd rate, especially now AMD bought em.
I have had 2 ATI chips, drivers suck big time, features suck big time.
I always end up going back to Nvidia. Must be a reason for that. The pattern is too frequent.

Big wall of text about nVidia and 3dFX.
Ummm...
wut?
he's refering to the nVidia buys 3dFX back in the beginning of 2000. the transfer of IP left nVidia not able to use dual GPU cards and the SLi technology that 3dFX had made for about 4 years.
Also, nVidia bought 3dFX legally so IDK where the "omg nVidia stole technology from 3dFX" comes from.

Well this is just lazy if it's only 'nvidia' code that causes artifacts on AMD GPUs. AMD cards definitely support all the same features. I run SSAO and advanced depth effects in games like Shogun 2, and SSAO in Bad Company 2 on an AMD 6970.
I guess it's the same thing with AMD stamped games like Shogun 2, but at least those effects still work on nvidia cards too because the company doesn't want to split its customer base.
Shame on you CCP. Get in contact with AMD catalyst people and sort this out, don't just turn your back on it because you happen to be partnered with a jolly green giant.

Btw, you think EyeFinity is great? the only decent way to support up to 24 screens on a single card is still Matrox.

So what's actually the problem right here, you mean Incarna will be less pretty on AMD cards compared to Nvidia cards? I'd like to know as I actually bought an AMD computer just for Incarna as my old laptop couldn't handle it. I feel like I'm being ripped off by CCP.

Compare these:
ATi Developer Tools and SDKs
Nvidia Developer Tools and SDKs
Now, which one do you think you would go with?
...
Heh. And they chose PS3 instead of XBox 360 for Dust 514. If it were just a matter of dev tools, the XBox is by far the easier choice. (I know, they chose PS3 because Sony permits CCP to connect the console to CCP's network directly.)
I have an ATI Radeon HD 5870 on Windows 7. That card was better than anything NVidia had to offer at the time I bought it. Thankfully, none of those restrictions seem to intersect with my current configuration.

I added that one later.
It was clearly the superior technological alternative to stinkinŠ 3dfx and thus soon completely abandoned.
