Nvidia is also investing $5 billion into Intel
What just happened? Intel has received another massive investment from an unlikely source: Nvidia. Team Green is purchasing $5 billion in Intel common stock at $23.28 per share, part of a collaboration that will see the two companies jointly develop x86 system-on-chips – called Intel x86 RTX SoCs – that integrate Intel CPUs and Nvidia RTX GPU chiplets for a wide range of PCs. Intel will also be building custom x86 data center CPUs for Nvidia to integrate into its AI infrastructure platforms. […]
This is a major development.
I did not expect Nvidia to de facto give up on their Windows-on-Arm efforts. I guess they are smart enough to recognize that WoA is a joke (especially when WoA devices are priced higher than average) outside using WoA as a browser/office/media player device.
This honestly sounds like it was driven by pressure from the US administration.
That being said, we might see some interesting developments from this collaboration.
