Nvidia forges ARM chip for PCs and servers - true – except for the x64 bit

Thursday, 06 January 2011 07:36

Start64!CES 2011 The ARM race for the data center just got a whole lot more interesting. At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nvidia announced that it is indeed working on a CPU and that the chip is based on the ARM RISC architecture that's wickedly popular in smartphones and tablets. In other words, it's not a low-powered x64 chip.


In the funny way that the world works, Intel, which owns the processor market for PCs and servers, was probably of two minds about the rumors of graphics chip maker Nvidia creating an X64 clone and taking on the chip giant in the CPU space.

Intel didn't need the competition, with Advanced Micro Devices already in there, but another x64 competitor is easy enough for Intel to defend against. With Microsoft also announcing today at CES that Windows will run on ARM chips and with Google's Android Linux, Apple's iOS, and Canonical's Ubuntu already on the low-powered processors, that's a big portion of modern computing.
