X86 processor from NVidia?

By crispin. Original by Lionel - 06/03/2009 07:42:43 CET - Category: Mac Intel
The war between NVidia and Intel is unceasingly bitter and worsens since NVidia wants to carry out calculations with its GPU and Intel wants to display images using its CPU.
One of the ways that NVidia could go would be to take on Intel completely by launching its own X86 processors. At least this is the opinion of Michael Hara on a Morgan Stanley technology conference webcast; he predicts that this will happen in the next 2 to 3 years.
NVidia has to be very sure of itself to manufacture processors as powerful as those of Intel who have decades of experience; however the thing becomes possible since they do not seek to offer complete X86 products; instead being satisfied to offer a something that does what their GPU and Cuda cannot do.
A rendez-vous in a couple of years to find out if this prediction is carried out, and if NVidia has success and also if AMD can survive with the presence of two adversaries.
