Yesterday, at a meeting with some journalists, Intel stated that CPUs realize video encoding, as that is a task
designed for them and that the future would not bring any changes. According to Intel representatives, the CPU is used by DivX for dynamical adjustments of details across scenes. The processor is the only part that can [...]
NVIDIA announces GeForce 9M, takes subtle jabs at Intel.
NVIDIA is looking to up the ante in the realm of notebook GPUs with its new GeForce 9M series. NVIDIA is banking on both power and efficiency to win over OEMs and end-users with the new GPUs.
NVIDIA claims that the new GeForce 9M GPUs are up to [...]
Nvidia jumped into the market for mobile Internet devices (MIDs) on Monday with the introduction of a processor family based on the Arm processor core.
Tegra will primarily compete against Intel, which released a chip platform called Centrino Atom in April. Atom is designed for MIDs, a general name for portable computers that can be used [...]
Graphics card provider Nvidia has just shown off two Tegra processors designed for tiny laptops or netbooks. Tegra processors are designed so that devices fitted with them would be able to browse the web, show high-definition video, and handle graphically-heavy games.
This move pushes Nvidia into direct competition with Intel, who are also releasing similar chips. [...]
Graphics chip vendor Nvidia will reportedly introduce a line of processors designed for small, handheld computers at the Computex exhibition in Taipei next week.
The Inquirer report sheds light on a product called Tegra that Nvidia plans to unveil next week. While the Tegra name has been known for some time, Nvidia has kept details of [...]
Overclocking is more popular than ever. And since it’s so easy to boost the frequency of your Intel processor, it would be a shame not to. But CPUs aren’t the only components that can be overclocked. The GPUs on graphics cards can also be speeded up, and so can their memory. And since an affordable [...]
NVIDIA’s upcoming Summer 2008 lineup gets some additional details
Later this week NVIDIA will enact an embargo on its upcoming next-generation graphics core, codenamed D10U.

With the GeForce 9-series NVIDIA has created quite a lot of confusion. Instead of a major update it seems that most GeForce 9 cards are merely updated versions of GeForce 8 cards, and unfortunately named so you cannot figure out which card is based on which.
The GeForce 9800GTX is a perfect example. While the name [...]

The end may be near for discrete chipsets, at least if NVidia has its way, but does this mean an end for performance motherboards? Often considered the bane of performance computing, integrated graphics will soon be found on all of the firm’s products. If that idea sends chills down your spine, NVidia is hoping that [...]
