What do Managers do?
1) Sets objectives. The manager sets goals for the group, and decides what work needs to be done to meet those goals.
2) Organizes. The manager divides the work into manageable activities, and selects people to accomplish the tasks that need to be done.
3) Motivates and communicates. The manager creates a
team out of his people, through decisions on pay, placement, promotion,
and through his communications with the team. Drucker also referred to
this as the “integrating” function of the manager.
4) Measures. The manager establishes appropriate targets and yardsticks, and analyzes, appraises and interprets performance.
5) Develops people. With the rise of the knowledge
worker, this task has taken on added importance. In a knowledge economy,
people are the company’s most important asset, and it is up to the
manager to develop that asset.
While other management experts may use different words and focus on
different aspects of these responsibilities, Mr. Drucker’s basic
description of the manager’s job still holds.
How to Become a Manager — 13 Skills You’ll Need
1. Communication
There’s a lot of communication when you’re a manager. You have to communicate with each of your employees. You have to communicate “sideways” with your co-workers and customers. And you have to communicate upwards with your own manager or executive. You need some substance in the communication, of course — you need to have something worthy of being communicated. But substance isn’t enough — if you know what you’re doing and can’t properly communicate it to anyone else, then you’ll never be a good manager.

But substance isn’t enough — if you know what you’re doing and can’t properly communicate it to anyone else, then you’ll never be a good manager.
2. Listening Skills
This is a part of communication, but I want to single it out because it’s so important. Some managers get so impressed with themselves that they spend much more of their time telling people things than they spend listening. But no matter how high you go in the management hierarchy, you need to be able to listen. It’s the only way you’re really going to find out what’s going on in your organization, and it’s the only way that you’ll ever learn to be a better manager.

It’s the only way you’re really going to find out what’s going on in your organization, and it’s the only way that you’ll ever learn to be a better manager.
3. A Commitment to the Truth
You’ll find that the higher you are in the management hierarchy, the less likely you are to be in touch with reality. Managers get a lot of brown-nosing, and people tend to sugar-coat the news and tell managers what they want to hear. The only way you’ll get the truth is if you insist on it. Listen to what people tell you, and ask questions to probe for the truth. Develop information sources outside of the chain of command and regularly listen to those sources as well. Make sure you know the truth — even if it’s not good news.

Make sure you know the truth — even if it’s not good news.
4. Empathy
This is the softer side of listening and truth. You should be able to understand how people feel, why they feel that way, and what you can do to make them feel differently. Empathy is especially important when you’re dealing with your customers. And whether you think so or not, you’ll always have customers. Customers are the people who derive benefit from the work you do. If no one derives benefit from your work, then what’s the point of keeping your organization around?

5. Persuasion
Put all four of the preceding skills together, because you’ll need them when you try to persuade someone to do something you want done. You could describe this as “selling” but it’s more general. Whether you’re trying to convince your employees to give you a better effort, your boss to give you a bigger budget, or your customers to agree to something you want to do for them, your persuasion skills will be strained to their limits.

6. Leadership
Leadership is a specialized form of persuasion focused on getting other people to follow you in the direction you want to go. It’s assumed that the leader will march into battle at the head of the army, so be prepared to make the same sacrifices you’re asking your employees to make.

7. Focus
The key to successful leadership is focus. You can’t lead in a hundred different directions at once, so setting an effective leadership direction depends on your decision not to lead in the other directions. Focusing light rays means concentrating the light energy on one spot. Focusing effort means picking the most important thing to do and then concentrating your team’s effort on doing it.

Focusing light rays means concentrating the light energy on one spot. Focusing effort means picking the most important thing to do and then concentrating your team’s effort on doing it.
8. Division of Work
This is the ability to break down large tasks into sub-tasks that can be assigned to individual employees. It’s a tricky skill — maybe more an art than a science, almost like cutting a diamond. Ideally you want to figure out how to accomplish a large objective by dividing the work up into manageable chunks. The people working on each chunk should be as autonomous as possible so that the tasks don’t get bogged down in endless discussion and debate. You have to pay careful attention to the interdependencies among the chunks. And you have to carefully assess each employee’s strengths, weaknesses and interests so that you can assign the best set of sub-tasks to each employee.

9. Obstacle Removal
Inevitably, problems will occur. Your ability to solve them is critical to the ongoing success of your organization. Part of your job is to remove the obstacles that are preventing your employees from doing their best.

10. Heat Absorption
Not all problems can be solved. When upper management complains about certain things that can’t be avoided (e.g., an unavoidable delay in a project deliverable), it’s your job to take the heat. But what’s more important, it’s your job to absorb the heat to keep it from reaching your employees. It’s the manager’s responsibility to meet objectives. If the objectives aren’t being met, then it’s the manager’s responsibility to:

But what’s more important, it’s your job to absorb the heat to keep it from reaching your employees. It’s the manager’s responsibility to meet objectives. If the objectives aren’t being met, then it’s the manager’s responsibility to:
- Make sure that upper management knows about the problem as early as possible.
- Take all possible steps to solve the problem with the resources you’ve been given.
- Suggest alternatives to management that will either solve the problem or minimize it. These other alternatives may propose the use of additional resources beyond the current budget, or they may propose a change in the objective that’s more achievable.
- Keep the problem from affecting the performance or morale of your employees.
11. Uncertainty Removal
When higher management can’t give you consistent direction in a certain
area, it’s up to you to shield your employees from the confusion, remove
the apparent uncertainty, and lead your employees in a consistent
direction until there’s a good reason to change that direction.
12. Project Management
This is a more advanced skill that formalizes some of attributes 7 – 11. Although both “Management” and “Project Management” contain the word “management,” they aren’t the same thing. Management implies a focus on people, while Project Management implies a focus on the project objective. You can be a Manager and a Project Manager, or you can be a Manager without being a Project Manager. You can also be a Project Manager without being a Manager (in which case you don’t have people reporting to you — you just deal with overseeing the project-specific tasks).

13. Administrative and Financial Skills
Most managers have a budget, and you’ll have to be able to set the budget and then manage to it. You’ll also have to deal with hiring, firing, rewarding good employee performance, dealing with unacceptable performance from some employees, and generally making sure that your employees have the environment and tools they need to do their work. It’s ironic that this is skill number 13 (an unlucky number in some cultures), because a lot of managers hate this part of the job the most. But if you’re good at budgeting, you’ll find it much easier to do the things you want to do. And hiring and dealing with employees on a day-to-day basis is one of the key skills to give you the best, happiest and most productive employees.

This article explains some of the things you’ll need to learn before you become a successful manager. You can probably become a manager without having all of these skills, but you’ll need all of them to be really successful and to get promoted to higher levels of management.
This article explains some of the things you’ll need to learn before you become a successful manager. You can probably become a manager without having all of these skills, but you’ll need all of them to be really successful and to get promoted to higher levels of management.
For every one of these skills, there are various levels of
performance. No one expects a new manager to be superior at every one
of these skills, but you should be aware of all of them, and you should
do everything you can to learn more about each skill. Some of that
learning will come through education (like reading the articles on this
web site — you might want to subscribe). But much of the learning will
come through experience — trial and error.
Just learn as much as you can about each skill, take nothing for
granted, and focus on doing the very best that you can do. Learn from
your mistakes and try not to repeat them. And ask for feedback — in
many cases you won’t know what you could do better unless someone tells
you.
The Marketing Mix and 4 Ps
Understanding How to Position Your Market Offering
What is marketing? The definition that many marketers learn as they start out in the industry is:
Putting the right product in the right place, at the right price, at the right time.
It's simple! You just need to create a product that a particularly group of people want, put it on sale some
place that those same people visit regularly, and price it at a level which matches the value they feel they get out of it;
and do all that at a time they want to buy. Then you've got it made!
There's a lot of truth in this idea. However, a lot of hard work
needs to go into finding out what customers want, and identifying where
they do their shopping. Then you need to figure out how to produce the
item at a price that represents
value to them, and get it all to come together at the critical time.
But if you get just one element wrong, it can spell disaster. You
could be left promoting a car with amazing fuel-economy in a country
where fuel is very cheap; or publishing a textbook after the start of
the new school year, or selling an item at a price that's too high – or
too low – to attract the people you're targeting.
The marketing mix is a good place to start when you are thinking
through your plans for a product or service, and it helps you avoid
these kinds of mistakes.
Understanding the Tool
The marketing mix and the 4 Ps of marketing are often used as
synonyms for each other. In fact, they are not necessarily the same
thing.
"Marketing mix" is a general phrase used to describe the different
kinds of choices organizations have to make in the whole process of
bringing a product or service to market. The 4 Ps is one way – probably
the best-known way – of defining the marketing mix, and was first
expressed in 1960 by E J McCarthy.
The 4Ps are:
- Product (or Service)
- Place
- Price
- Promotion
A good way to understand the 4 Ps is by the questions that you need
to ask to define you marketing mix. Here are some questions that will
help you understand and define each of the four elements:
Product/Service
- What does the customer want from the product/service? What needs does it satisfy?
- What features does it have to meet these needs?
- Are there any features you've missed out?
- Are you including costly features that the customer won't actually use?
- How and where will the customer use it?
- What does it look like? How will customers experience it?
- What size(s), color(s), and so on, should it be?
- What is it to be called?
- How is it branded?
- How is it differentiated versus your competitors?
- What is the most it can cost to provide, and still be sold sufficiently profitably? (See also Price, below).
Place
- Where do buyers look for your product or service?
- If they look in a store, what kind? A specialist boutique or in a supermarket, or both? Or online? Or direct, via a catalogue?
- How can you access the right distribution channels?
- Do you need to use a sales force? Or attend trade fairs? Or make online submissions? Or send samples to catalogue companies?
- What do you competitors do, and how can you learn from that and/or differentiate?
Price
- What is the value of the product or service to the buyer?
- Are there established price points for products or services in this area?
- Is the customer price sensitive? Will a small decrease in price gain you extra market share? Or will a small increase be indiscernible, and so gain you extra profit margin?
- What discounts should be offered to trade customers, or to other specific segments of your market?
- How will your price compare with your competitors?
Promotion
- Where and when can you get across your marketing messages to your target market?
- Will you reach your audience by advertising in the press, or on TV, or radio, or on billboards? By using direct marketing mailshot? Through PR? On the Internet?
- When is the best time to promote? Is there seasonality in the market? Are there any wider environmental issues that suggest or dictate the timing of your market launch, or the timing of subsequent promotions?
- How do your competitors do their promotions? And how does that influence your choice of promotional activity?
The 4Ps model is just one of many marketing mix lists that have been
developed over the years. And, whilst the questions we have listed above
are key, they are just a subset of the detailed probing that may be
required to optimize your marketing mix.
Amongst the other marketing mix models have been developed over the
years is Boom and Bitner's 7Ps, sometimes called the extended marketing
mix, which include the first 4 Ps, plus people, processes and physical
layout decisions.
Another marketing mix approach is Lauterborn's 4Cs, which presents
the elements of the marketing mix from the
buyer's, rather than the seller's, perspective. It is made up of
Customer needs and wants (the equivalent of product), Cost
(price), Convenience (place) and Communication (promotion). In this
article, we focus on the 4Ps model as it is the most well-recognized,
and contains the core elements of a good marketing mix.
Using the 4Ps Marketing Mix Model
The marketing mix model can be used to help you decide how to take a
new offer to market. It can also be used to test your existing marketing
strategy. Whether you are considering a new or existing offer, follow
the steps below help you define and improve your marketing mix.
- Start by identifying the product or service that you want to analyze.
- Now go through and answer the 4Ps questions – as defined in detail above.
- Try asking "why" and "what if" questions too, to challenge your offer. For example, ask why your target audience needs a particular feature. What if you drop your price by 5%? What if you offer more colors? Why sell through wholesalers rather than direct channels? What if you improve PR rather than rely on TV advertising?
Enable the “Remember my password” checkbox for network shares in Windows XP Professional
Windows XP Professional offers a Remember my password checkbox when mapping to a network drive, or other password protected network resource.
Unfortunately, once you’ve set a password, the Remember my password
box disappears, so future username or password changes can result in
repeated password prompts. Here’s how to clear your previously set
username and password, and get the Remember my password checkbox back:
- Click Start -> Run
- Type in control userpasswords2, and press Enter
- Click on the Advanced tab
- Click the Manage Passwords button
- Select the server for which you wish to delete existing settings, then click the Remove button
- Click Close
- Click OK
- Logout of Windows XP, then back in
- Connect to the password protected server. You should now be prompted for your username and password, along with the previously missing Remember my password checkbox
The above may work in other version of Windows, but I haven’t tested
this out. Please post a comment if you’ve been able to use this
procedure to get the Remember my password box back under your Windows version!
Why am I losing cached network passwords after a restart of Vista?
The passwords cached for Network shares on other computers
and applications like MSN Live, MS Outlook, Sharepoint portal, Outlook
Webmail, etc are lost when I reboot my computer, which runs on Vista.
I always check the Remember password checkbox in applications/login dialogs where ever prompted. I cannot imagine of a third party program that may clean up this on system restart/shutdown. Any idea, as to what is going wrong? | ||||
Answer
Here's one place to check at least -- maybe it's the trouble-maker for you:
Run gpedit.msc (you may have to 'Run As Administrator'). Look under Computer Configuration-> Windows Settings-> Security Settings-> Local Policies-> Security Options. Find "Network access: Do not allow storage of credentials or .NET Passports for network authentication", ensure it's set to "Disabled". |

After you log on as an administrator to a computer that is not a
member of a domain, when you double-click User Accounts in Control Panel to
change the password for the built-in Administrator account, the Administrator
account may not appear in the list of user accounts. Consequently, you cannot
change its password.
This behavior can occur because the Administrator account logon option appears only in Safe mode if more than one account is created on the system. The Administrator account is available in Normal mode only if there are no other accounts on the system. To work around this behavior:
- If you are running Windows XP Home Edition, restart the computer and then use a power user account to log on to the
computer in Safe mode.
- If you are running Windows XP Professional, reset the password in the Local Users and Groups snap-in in Microsoft
Management Console (MMC):
1. Click Start, and then click Run.
2. In the Open box, type "mmc" (without the quotation marks), and then click OK to start MMC.
3. Start the Local Users and Groups snap-in.

Windows command prompt. To change a user's password at the command prompt,
log on as an administrator and type: "net user * /domain"
(without the quotation marks)
When you are prompted to type a password for the user, type the new password, not the existing password. After you type the new password, the system prompts you to retype the password to confirm. The password is now changed.
Alternatively, you can type the following command: net user .
When you do so, the password changes without prompting you again. This command
also enables you to change passwords in a batch file.
Non-administrators receive a "System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied" error message when they attempt to change the password.

Non-administrators receive a "System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied" error message when they attempt to change the password.
If you set a computer for auto logon, anyone who can physically obtain access to
the computer can gain access to all of the computer contents, including any
network or networks it is connected to. In addition, if you enable autologon,
the password is stored in the registry in plaintext. The specific registry key
that stores this value is remotely readable by the Authenticated Users group.
As a result, this setting is only appropriate for cases where the computer is
physically secured, and steps have been taken to ensure that untrusted users
cannot remotely access the registry.
1. Start/Run/Regedit, and then locate the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
2. Using your account name and password, double-click the DefaultUserName entry, type your user name, and then click
OK.
3. Double-click the DefaultPassword entry, type your password, and then click OK.
NOTE: The DefaultPassword value may not exist. If it does not:
a. Click Add Value on the Edit menu.
b. In the Value Name box, type DefaultPassword, and then click REG_SZ for the Data Type
c. Type your password in the String box, and then save your changes.
Also, if no DefaultPassword string is specified, Windows automatically changes the value of the AutoAdminLogon key
from 1 (true) to 0 (false), thus disabling the AutoAdminLogon feature.
4. Click Add Value on the Edit menu, enter AutoAdminLogon in the Value Name box, and then click REG_SZ for the Data
Type.
5. Type "1" (without the quotation marks) in the String box, and then save your changes.
6. Quit Regedit.
7. Click Start, click Shutdown, and then click OK to turn off your computer.
8. Restart your computer and Windows. You are now able to log on automatically.
NOTE: To bypass the AutoAdminLogon process, and to log on as a different user, hold down the SHIFT key after you log off or after Windows restarts.
Note that this procedure only applies to the first logon. To enforce this setting for subsequent logoffs, the administrator must set the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Value: ForceAutoLogon
Type: REG_SZ
Data: 1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
2. Using your account name and password, double-click the DefaultUserName entry, type your user name, and then click
OK.
3. Double-click the DefaultPassword entry, type your password, and then click OK.
NOTE: The DefaultPassword value may not exist. If it does not:
a. Click Add Value on the Edit menu.
b. In the Value Name box, type DefaultPassword, and then click REG_SZ for the Data Type
c. Type your password in the String box, and then save your changes.
Also, if no DefaultPassword string is specified, Windows automatically changes the value of the AutoAdminLogon key
from 1 (true) to 0 (false), thus disabling the AutoAdminLogon feature.

After you upgrade a Microsoft Windows 2000-based computer, Windows XP
Professional may start directly to the desktop without stopping at the Welcome
screen or requiring you to type a username and password. If you then create a
new user account, you may not receive any option that allows you to log on by
using the new account.
This behavior can occur if Windows 2000 was configured for automatic logon (Autologon).
Windows XP inherits this configuration setting.
To resolve this behavior, turn off the automatic logon feature and require a
username and password at logon:
1. Click Start on the Windows taskbar, and then click Run.
2. In the Open box, type control userpasswords2, and then click OK.
3. In the dialog box that appears, click to select the "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer"
check box, and then click OK.
To work around this behavior, log off from the Autologon account, and then log on by using the new account.
1. Click Start on the Windows taskbar, and then click Run.
2. In the Open box, type control userpasswords2, and then click OK.
3. In the dialog box that appears, click to select the "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer"
check box, and then click OK.
To work around this behavior, log off from the Autologon account, and then log on by using the new account.
When you create a new user on a Microsoft Windows XP Home
Edition-based computer, you are not prompted to create a password. To
create a password for a user account, click the icon for the account, and then
click "Create a Password".
Stored User Names and Passwords Feature Interoperability at a Command Prompt
By default, the Stored User Names and Passwords feature creates
a "key" for any connection that you make in the graphical user interface (GUI)
that requires alternate credentials. When you make a connection at a command
prompt by using the net use command and by passing alternate credentials, a key
is not created.
For the net use command to save the credentials in Credential
Manager, use the /savecred switch. When you use the /savecred switch, any
credentials that you are prompted for when you use the net use command are saved
as a key.
Therefore, if you are prompted for the user name and password
(or if you are prompted only for the password) when you use the net use command
(but not because you used an asterisk [*] in the net use command for password
prompting) and the /savecred switch, the credentials are saved.
When you type the net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name /savecred
command, the user is prompted for a user name, and then the user is prompted for
a password.
When you type the net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name /u: domain_name \ user_name /savecred command, the user is prompted for a password.
However, when you type one of the following commands, a key is not created:
net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name * /user: domain_name \ user_name /savecred
-or-
net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name * /savecred /user: domain_name \ user_name
If you type net help use at a command prompt, more information is displayed about the net use command.
When you type the net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name /u: domain_name \ user_name /savecred command, the user is prompted for a password.
However, when you type one of the following commands, a key is not created:
net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name * /user: domain_name \ user_name /savecred
-or-
net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name * /savecred /user: domain_name \ user_name
If you type net help use at a command prompt, more information is displayed about the net use command.

Certain
Programs Do Not Work Correctly If You Log On Through a Limited User Account.
After you log on to a computer by using a Limited
User Account, you may observe one or more of the following behaviors when you try to use a program that is not expressly designed for Windows XP. Information here.
Password Reset Disk Overview
To protect user accounts in the event that the user forgets the password, every local user should make a password reset disk and keep it in a safe place. Then, if the user forgets his or her password, the password can be reset using the password reset disk and the user is able to access the local user account again.

Then, if the user forgets his or her password, the password can be reset using the password reset disk and the user is able to access the local user account again.
After you reset the password of an account on a Windows XP-based
computer that is joined to a workgroup, you may lose access to the user's:
Web page credentials, File share credentials, EFS-encrypted files, Certificates
with private keys (SIGNED/ENCRYPTed e-mail).

information in detail here.
I assume no responsibility for the
purpose to which this information is used. This includes employees attempting to
bypass restrictions put into place by System Administrators on corporate
machines.
Boot up with DOS and delete the sam.exe and sam.log files from
Winnt\system32\config in your hard drive. Now when you boot up in NT the
password on your built-in administrator account will be blank (No password).
This solution works only if your hard drive is FAT. [Editor's note: Use
with caution, there may be other ramifications from performing this tip.]
This is a utility to (re)set the password of any user that has a valid (local)
account on your NT system, by modifying the crypted password in the registrys
SAM file. You do not need to know the old password to set a new one.
It works offline, that is, you have to shutdown your computer and boot off a floppydisk. The bootdisk includes stuff to access NTFS partitions and scripts to glue the whole thing together. Note: It will now also work with SYSKEY, including the option to turn it off! More information here. Download here.

Just pick the password, and drag it and it's log-in (if there is one) into the program that uses it. No retyping is necessary (even in programs that do not accept the drag, you can just paste the password in). Go to the URL of a password protected site with the click of a button.

Passwords That Are Restored:
1. Program passwords are restored, such as Hotmail Messenger, AOL Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, and other Web server-based passwords. This behavior is by design: The programs simply cache these passwords; the actual passwords are
stored on a Web server. System Restore does not actually change the password, but it changes the password that is remembered by the program. You can use the current password for the program to log on to the server.
2. Domain and Computer passwords are restored. This behavior is by Design and is a limitation of System Restore. System Restore only rolls back the local machine state. Part of the information about joining domains resides in Active Directory, and Active Directory is not rolled back by System Restore.

The Migration Wizard does not migrate passwords. Passwords for
Dial-Up Networking connections, Microsoft Outlook Express accounts, Microsoft
Internet Explorer saved passwords, mapped drives, and so on will need to be
reconfigured once the migration is complete.
The administrator account and password created during Setup are
used to log on in Safe Mode only. To create a password for user accounts,
double-click Manage Users in Control Panel.
Therefore, if you are prompted for the user name and password
(or if you are prompted only for the password) when you use the net use command
(but not because you used an asterisk [*] in the net use command for password
prompting) and the /savecred switch, the credentials are saved.
When you type the net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name /savecred
command, the user is prompted for a user name, and then the user is prompted for
a password.
When you type the net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name /u: domain_name \ user_name /savecred command, the user is prompted for a password.
However, when you type one of the following commands, a key is not created:
net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name * /user: domain_name \ user_name /savecred
-or-
net use * \\ computer_name \ share_name * /savecred /user: domain_name \ user_name
If you type net help use at a command prompt, more information is displayed about the net use command.

When the Welcome screen is appears, the names that are displayed
do not match any of the names of users' folders under the Documents and Settings
folder or any of the names on the Users tab in Task Manager.
This behavior may occur if you have changed the name of the account in the User Accounts tool in Control Panel. By doing so, the new name appears on the Welcome screen, but the actual account name remains the same. The folders under the Documents and Settings folder and the names that are listed in Task Manager show the actual account name.
To resolve this behavior, if the display name for a user account has been changed, you can find out which account the new display name belongs to by logging on as that user, starting Task Manager, and then clicking the Users tab.
The user account that is marked as active is the one that is currently logged on. Also, you can find out which of the folders under Documents and Settings belongs to the currently logged-on user by right-clicking Start, and then clicking Explore. Windows Explorer will then start in the Start Menu folder of the currently logged-on user's folder.

VGA: NVIDIA vs ATI ?
Why Nvidia?
Nvidia started its journey in 1993, but truly picked up steam after introducing the famous “GeForce” series. Since then, it has capitalized on its success and gobbled up many other smaller companies. Nvidia managed to secure a contract to develop the graphics hardware for Microsoft’s Xbox console, and later Sony’s PlayStation 3 made it the leading independent GPU manufacturer. Now, though Nvidia is much more than a GPU producer, its core remains the same. It has also stepped into the Smartphone and tablets market. providing processing power to a number of gadgets.
What about AMD?
AMD’s need to fuel its latest series, marketed as AMD Fusion, promised a one- die solution for both GPU and CPU. The final design of the Fusion lineup was a merger between AMD and ATI, which was bought out in a huge 5.6 billion US dollars deal. ATI was never a GPU manufacturer per se, as they always headed the research and development aspects of business, while third-party publishers mass produced the GPUs. So AMD’s takeover didn’t cause a major overhaul of the company. ATI’s venture into the gaming console resulted in powering Nintendo’s GameCube, Wii and most importantly Microsoft’s Xbox 360.
The difference?
This Is the section where I have to constantly look over my shoulder because PC fan boys will tear this issue (or me) apart if they find this article leaning over to any particular side (deep breath!). Comparing AMD and Nvidia is relatively hard, since they both take completely different approaches. AMD’s flagship is the Radeon lineup, a successor to its Rage series. Nvidia’s jewel in the crown is the GeForce series. Though both these companies offer mobility solutions as well, we will only talk about their discrete graphics cards. These cards vary in memory, clock speed, visual technologies, pixel pipelines, form factor (heat sinks), price and architecture.
Nvidia offers a cocktail of innovations in its cards; SLI (scalable link interface), which allows parallel processing by cramping two or more cards together, PhysX support, Pure Video, GPU Direct, 3D Vision Surround and CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture — Nvidia’s parallel computing architecture) have made significant impact in tilting the pivot. AMD, on the other hand, has its share of novelties such as Vision Engine, Crossfire X (in answer to Nvidia’s SLI capability), Dual Graphics, Eyefinity and HD3D technology. All of these remarkable advancements require in-depth analysis and stress tests. As a user you will find that some of these technologies will cater to your needs more than others.
The current lineup
Although it is not possible to announce either Nvidia or AMD as the overall winner, I have dared to compare a few of their cards, with respect to their pricing and ‘weight’. Source: https://www.gamesht.com/
nVidia vs ATI
Is ATI or nVidia Better?
AMD and
Nvidia are the leaders of the GPU market. When you upgrade your graphics
card you usually have to choose between similarly priced and positioned
products from these two companies. But how do you know if AMD / ATI or
Nvidia is better?
You will find more information about both GPU manufacturers, as well as AMD Radeon and Nvidia benchmarks and performance comparisons below. Don't forget to check out our ATI vs Nvidia discussion below and vote in our poll!

About nVidia
Nvidia
is a GPU (graphics processing unit) and motherboard chipset
manufacturer based in Santa Clara, California (US). It was founded in
1993 and since then became one of the leaders in gaming and professional
graphics. Nvidia was the first to introduce a graphics card with
on-board transform and lighting (T&L) - the Geforce 256 - in 1999.
The GeForce brand became highly popular and with the exception of FX
series these cards have always been some of the best on the home
graphics market. The popular gaming console Playstation 3
also uses Nvidia graphics.In February 2008 Nvidia acquired Ageia Technologies and started integrating their physics engine, the PhysX into Geforce cards. All Geforce 8 cards and above now support PhysX hardware acceleration for PhysX-enabled games.
About AMD / ATI
ATI
was a major designer and manufacturer of GPUs and motherboard chipsets
until 2006 when it was acquired by AMD. Even though ATI no longer exists
as a company, and the popular brand is no longer used for graphics
cards as of 2011, lots of people still refer to Radeon cards as "ATI"
out of habit. (As this page was created way back in 2009, it still has
lots of references to the brand).ATI was founded in 1985, producing graphics cards for PC makers like IBM. They launched a highly popular Radeon
GPU line in year 2000. After ATI's acquisition by AMD in 2006 the newly
renamed AMD Graphics Product Group continued making high-end graphics
cards for gamers and professionals. The popular Xbox 360 console also uses an AMD graphics chip.
