C]Net reports that Silicon Graphics on Monday is expected to release a new high-end visualization machine that marks a major change for the company: reliance on mainstream video technology from ATI.

The new Onyx4 UltimateVision system uses ATI workstation video cards instead of the SGI-designed graphics systems the company has relied on for years, said Shawn Underwood, marketing director for SGI's visual systems. The systems start at less than $45,000 but in high-end configurations with 64 of SGI's MIPS 16000A processors cost well over $300,000.

Era uma boa forma de poupar €€€ e era um excelente apoio para a ATI.

Depois podiam era pegar num desses bixos com uns 100 GPU's e correr o 3DMark... :D
