As rumors have suggested, AMD has decided to not use the ATI brand anymore on its upcoming products. So, from now on new Radeon and FirePro video cards launched by AMD will not have the ATI brand anymore, just AMD Radeon or AMD FirePro. The transition will take place gradually, and the current products will not be affected. According to AMD, this consolidation of ATI-branded products under the AMD brand will simplify their marketing strategies. Below you can see the new logos that will be used on future video cards from AMD.
