Oddly, ARM is eating the PC architecture from the inside. What's on your raid card? An arm. What's in your usb devices? An arm. What's in your SSD? An arm. A PC is beginning to look like a network of arms with an intel driving. How long will the intel core last?
- gpderetta 10y agoIntel margins in that single chip are probably a few orders of magnitude of ARM royalties on all those embedded CPUs combined. Intel has little to fear from those chips. On the other hand, Apple does seem to have the capability to design competitive desktop class CPUs, so who knows.
- pertymcpert 10y agoThe absurd margins are in fact the reason why Intel need to fear ARM. It gives an incentive to lower the costs by designing them out of systems, even if it means sacrificing peak performance.
