Nvidia releases Tegra processor and challenges Intel
According to medias of foreign countries, Nvidia faces and moves apparatus of Internet on Sunday (hereafter referred to as " MID " )Has released two Tegra series processors with brand-new fund, to " elder brother " Intel initiates the challenge.
Two processor these Tegra 600 and 650 Tegra respectively, face miniature calculation apparatus and design mainly. But initial, the Tegra series products mainly face new developing MID apparatus.
Put forward MID concept Intel, Atom its processor to face MID apparatus and development too first. But Intel and Nvidia admit, up till now, user's definition of MID is still very confused. Nvidia moves general managers of Division Mike and Rayfield (Mike Rayfield) Claim, the screen size of MID should be between 4 inch to 12 inch, adopt the keyboard or touch-sensitive screen to be designed, can insert the game machine or wireless high-speed Internet.
According to the introduction of Rayfield, Tegra processor volume only as big as coin, collect ARM 11 deal with kernel, graph processing unit, media processor, system memory,etc. for an organic whole.
Rayfield claims, in the near future, more and more customers will adopt Tegra in the products. Rayfield says: "Have manufacturer products to introduce them weekend, but first all product come from the market of Taiwan, their response is the fastest. "
Rayfield also claims, MID apparatus based on Tegra will go on the market on Christmas, the price is being expected to be between 200 dollars to 250 dollars. As to this, Insight 64 analyst Nathan and Brook and Wood (Nathan Brookwood) Say: "If can pay attention to the globality of the apparatus, the graphical display ability, and ability to broadcast high clear video content, then MID is a good choice. "
Though Tegra and Atom face MID apparatus,Digital Photo Frames|Micro SD Card|Flash MP3 Player the frameworks of two kinds of chips are totally different. Atom builds up on the basis of x86, but Tegra is based on ARM processor framework. Intel think ARM processor face communication and mobile phone market mainly, and x86 processor face game and network person who browse through application mainly. So, x86 processor should be superior to ARM processor.
But Rayfield does not think so, he says: "During the past 10 years, ARM processor is best ' per milliwatt of performance '. So, this is a challenge ARM unyielding fight. " And Brook and Wood shows, still unable to predict the win and defeat at present, but this will be a very interesting battle.
