I do feel like Nvidia is the only one with the right mix of market muscle, knowhow, and patents/licenses to pull of an ARM based competitor to Apple's products.

I do feel like Nvidia is the only one with the right mix of market muscle, knowhow, and patents/licenses to pull of an ARM based competitor to Apple's products. AMD is doing some great things but can you imagine an M1 level product that sips power like a champ but has the graphical muscle of a proper 3070? The M1 Ultra is decent, but just doesn't compare to a proper dedicated GPU (on blender benchmark, the desktop M1 ultra seems to perform slightly below a laptop 3050).

- moffkalast 4y agoOh yes!
- jnwatson 4y agoThey should just bite the bullet and require water cooling. I have a 2080ti in a custom loop and it is almost silent.
- AshamedCaptain 4y agonvidia has already released the best arm chips they could (tegra) years ago. They all were so crappy they were part of the reason I never believed apple would go arm.
- duped 4y agoThey don't have the board design chops to do it. They need the partners because they can't build enough PCBs to keep up with the number of chips they make.
