ATI's shift to 32-bit precision close, says company chief

"ATI graphics processors will offer 32-bit pixel shader precision "pretty soon", the company's president and COO, Dave Orton, said last week.

Interviewed by Japan's PC Watch, Orton said that the company has "no intention" of sticking with 24-bit precision, as delivered by its current high-end chips.

That, claims Xbit Labs, fingers the upcoming R420 as ATI's first 32-bit pixel shader chip, though Orton himself didn't make any forecast as to which GPU will make the move from 24-bit precision. "

It's amazing how well ATIs been doing over the last year and a half. Seriously.
