Probably a good thing for consumers they didn’t buy Nvidia because I could only imagine how much of a monopoly AMD would have with Nvidia’s resources.
Quite the blunder for AMD retrospectively.

I remember this back in the day and was so glad they didn’t. I also had a very sour taste in my mouth with AMD in the early 2000s with their stupid hot CPUs.

This is back in the days of nForce motherboards from Nvidia. If ATI bought Nvidia it would have led to the biggest hardware monopoly you’d ever seen

Im sure I could figure this out with a quick Google search, but how long did AMD continue to use the ATI brand? My laptop from ~2009-2010 had ATI graphics.
