There is a different between design and developing a CPU Core like Oryon Core here, and Nvidia shipping ARM SoC which the CPU design itself that is from ARM, likely Cortex-X5.
- forrestthewoods 2y agoI don’t care who designs the CPU. I just would love to see a Nvidia SoC that targets laptops and desktops that has a high end GPU built in. Does that require them to design a custom CPU and not use an ARM design? I don’t know. I also don’t really care. Either way is fine!
- kcb 2y agoNvidia has a long history of design and developing their own CPU cores.
- Wytwwww 2y agoHaven't they mostly abandoned that after Tegra X2 which came out years ago?
- ksec 2y agoExactly. And that was nearly 10 years ago. As with all Custom ARM CPU design, it always ends up the same fate, arm 's ARM Cortex Design will catch up and always prove to provide better performance per dollar than owning its own design team. Oryon is great had it been launched in 2020 or 2021 but it will be competing against Cortex X5 soon. Not that I dont want Nvidia to have their own CPU design again. But judging from current trend and trajectory and very likely their perspective it doesn't make any sense. The future isn't in CPU but GPU or HSA.
