µ is reporting that MSI is set to join ATI's graphics partner list. If this turns out to be true, it will be the second big (first tier) Nvidia graphics provider after ASUS to start supplyng its own ATI products. ATI is winning its battle one - after - one. First it dethroned Nvidia as the owner/provider of cutting-edge-fast graphic card provider by releasing the R300 line of AGP cards. Then Microsoft announced they have selected ATI (graphic) along with IBM (core processor) to make the upcoming XBOX 2 consoloe, and now 2 big taiwanese AGP manufacturers (ASUS & MSI (no radeon product yet))will supply its products. The official announcement should come in January where many market analysts await a new wave of next-gen product announcements.
