CES 2011: NVIDIA Tegra 2 Phone and Project Denver Announced

[news 28]

NVIDIA is in the console world, courtesy of Sony's failure to predict

how 3D graphics have evolved combined with the limitations of the Cell

processor and archticture. NVIDIA was able to slip in with a console

optimized GeForce 7900 GPU, and the PS3 was given the ability to

compete with Microsoft and the XBox 360. Here we are six years later

and NVIDIA is approaching the overall performance and capabilities of

that console GPU in a mobile, low power form.

Quote: "NVIDIA does not seem to be stopping there. The aim is to

create processors which will not only run in consoles and handhelds,

but also higher performing tablets, notebooks, desktops and servers.

Microsoft will soon announce that Windows will now be developed to run

on Arm processors. This opens up a huge world of software and

support, and opens the way for another major processor developer to

compete with Intel and AMD in the desktop market and above."

 

Thanks for posting our news!
