Intel and NVidia: Getting Closer?
In the world of GPU manufacturers, the recent acquisition of ATI by AMD was a major earthquake, and left NVidia alone with no other choice than finding partnership with Intel or being swollen by Santa Claras Giant. There was a little difference, NVidia enjoys being independent, and its value (financial and technology) is higher than ATI.
Couple of months ago, Intel announced its goal to enter true expand its leadership position as GPU manufacturer beyond its share memory graphic chipsets models. Intel wants to join the battle for the most powerful graphic card, and via its project Larrabee, the founder is expecting to benefit from its leadership in parallelization and multicore technologies to deliver graphic components with amazing groundbreaking capabilities. Indeed, processing power required by 3D engines and video displays have a lot of common requirements, and could indeed be perform in parallel by the same unit.
To complete this project, Intel might need the help of NVidia expertise when it
