AMD opens Radeon.com Website

Though I am not quite sure as to why it wasn't there before as the Radeon brand certainly has been around for a while (perhaps the domain was taken). Regardless, AMD just opened up the Radeon.com website. The site hosts information from amd.com and is more gamer centric themed.

We expect that driver releases and information in the future will launch through that website as right now it's all promotional items. The design of the site resembles the current Crimson drivers, anyway have a peek and browse.

Nice, working away at that brand name marketing appeal at last. AMD's graphics devision is really tidying up its act since the RTG's conception.

This doesn't really surprise me. They created the Radeon Technology Group recently, too. I think AMD is just preparing in case of bankruptcy. In other words, if Zen is a flop, AMD as we know it could disappear, but RTG could be it's own company. Creating radeon.com doesn't hurt anything, and it helps ease the transition, should it ever happen.

Old School

Actually before Radeon was owned by AMD you use to download the drivers from Radeon.com Then it switched to ATI.com.

Actually ATI.com (1999) was first, then Radeon.com (2001).

I thought it was kinda strange that ATI.com wasn't established prior to 1999.
Fun fact, MTV.com was first established in 1995 by VJ Adam Curry.

Oh and an ancient favorite established in 1994. A classic...
