Then you will see IBM , Intel and AMD/ATI tag team to
make sure that NVIDIA don't live to see 2010.

*IBM has good relationship with Army, so do NVIDIA and if they enter the market and try to get a contract from the army it will make IBM supper mad.

*Intel and AMD is already having its trouble destroying each other and they sure as hell don't want another company to enter the market.

Anyways if NVIDIA try this they will end up like VIA :!

x86 is an instruction set. x64 is a CPU bit specification. As in 32bit, 64bit, etc.

In other news: Maybe THIS is why AMD and ATI got together - to challenge BOTH Intel and nVidia in both directions.

My only concern is that NVidia might not be inclined to make chips in line with the new push for efficiency from Intel and AMD. I don't want a 2 kilowatt power supply on my next desktop.]]>Oct 19th 2006 1:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/19/nvidia-has-x86-cpu-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/19/nvidia-has-x86-cpu-in-the-works/Oct 19th 2006 2:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/19/nvidia-has-x86-cpu-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/19/nvidia-has-x86-cpu-in-the-works/
x86 chips are general purpose - they do everything, but nothing particularly well. They enable the versatile PC's we have today.

GFX chips are different - they're purpose built for a handful of related tasks, with one end game.

Using x86 chips for GFX purposes is like taking a semi to the speedway. Will it get you there? Yeah... but a Porsche would be much better.]]>Oct 19th 2006 2:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/19/nvidia-has-x86-cpu-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/19/nvidia-has-x86-cpu-in-the-works/Oct 19th 2006 2:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/19/nvidia-has-x86-cpu-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/19/nvidia-has-x86-cpu-in-the-works/
I've said this before but nobody believes me. But now it seems even more likely that my theory is correct. Check out what I've said before...

And in response to all the people who say that you can't run x86 instruction sets on a GPU.... why not? Apple has used Rosetta software to adapt its software, hasn't it? Couldn't our current CPU's shift roles and turn into "Translators" of instruction sets when CPU load gets too high so the GPU can pick up some of the slack? I really don’t know if this is possible and I'm no electronics engineer or whatever, but it seems like a good idea to me...
Not that most people NEED more power... My T2300e Yonah CPU never goes over 66% load...

VIA I believe, has only some limited rights to x86 production.

I doubt Intel (or AMD) would ever let this happen. The intellectual property issues would overwhelm Nvidia.

I dont doubt Nvidia could produce a nice CPU/GPU, especially at 45nm. However, the litigation risk is off the chart. ]]>Oct 19th 2006 3:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/10/19/nvidia-has-x86-cpu-in-the-works/http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/19/nvidia-has-x86-cpu-in-the-works/that would be a freaking super computer. an Nvidia processor with an SLI set up or something im totally down for something like this.
