AMD has updated their blog with a behind the scenes post on one of the key assets of having a couple GPU & CPU development company: their dedicated game development team that can assist developers in building code specifically designed and optimized for AMD CPU’s, ATI’s DirectX11-compliant GPU’s, and the ATI CrossFire multi-GPU technology.
As we outlined in our Gamers’ Manifesto, AMD provides its gaming partners with developer tools, lab testing, technical engagement, marketing support and more. One of the biggest, most appreciated assets that we provide is the test lab. We get game builds from our developer partners and the test lab plays through them to get the real end-user experience. This helps to find and feedback bugs to the developer, test and ensure a solid ATI Eyefinity experience, and generate single card and ATI CrossFireX™ technology performance info that’s fed back to our engineers to help with driver development. Through this process we catch most bugs long before gamers would ever know they existed.
