Intel Punches Back at NVidia
Have you guys ever watched a fight break out? Or a near fight?
Usually starts out like this:
1. One person hits the other
2. The other person hits back
3. RAMPAGE, EVERYONE GATHER AROUND TO WATCH
4. Game over
So, Intel has recently been over-stepping its usual CPU boundaries and invading the GPU territory, pitting against AMD and NVidia; bad news for the latter two companies.
Well, looks like NVidia’s had enough. Now NVidia’s fighting back.
As I’ve said, NVidia’s been dabbing at the CPU industry for quite a while now, and is near the development stage. NVidia is not only combining a GPU and a CPU into a single chip for desktop, but also for mobile CPUs.
So, what’s this got to do with Intel? Well, Intel’s Atom CPUs have been rampaging all over the place in the netbook and laptop industry, but now NVidia’s trying to make its own move.
NVidia is developing a new mobile CPU that can do everything that a CPU and a GPU can do. All in one, ultra-energy-efficient chip.
So, one of two things can happen:
1. An all-out mobile processor war between Intel and NVidia
2. They try to play nice and try to compromise
Either way, we’re going to see some heated competition. I’d prefer the all-out war though. It means more competitive pricing, and that just means… more for less, at least for us!
But I want to know what you think. What’s going to happen between Intel and NVidia? More competition? Compromise? Or something out of the ordinary??
Stay tuned for more!
And don’t forget to comment and subscribe!! I love criticism, further analysis, and suggestions on what hardware you want reviewed!!
