    Nvidia to license its graphics


    Posted: 18 Jun 2013
    Could Apple tap Nvidia for graphics power in its mobile devices? Maybe, now that the chip maker has decided to license its graphics technology.

    Nvidia on Tuesday said it would begin licensing its GPU cores and "visual computing" patent portfolio to device manufacturers -- a new business model for the company. The technology could appear in a full range of products from phones to supercomputers, the company said, with products likely emerging in 2015, given design and testing requirements.

    I wonder...

    Would they allow Intel to license this? Put a GTX 780 on an i7 chip?

    If Nvidia can make money, why not? That's business.
    Didn't Intel block out Nvidia from chipsets and IGP a while back with an Intel architecture change?

    Possibly. There's a reason why we don't have Nvidia Ion chipsets anymore.
