Nvidia's CPU would likely challenge both AMD and Intel, depending on advancements in performance and efficiency.
If NVIDIA created a CPU, it would likely focus on advanced graphics and AI capabilities, potentially reshaping performance in gaming, professional rendering, and machine learning tasks.
What do they control? NVIDIA lacks the rights to produce x86 processors, and their ARM compatibility on Windows isn't good. If they ever released a CPU for consumers, it would fail quickly upon release.
They indeed do. It's referred to as Grace, but it functions as a CPU designed for AI tasks.
It wouldn't likely take off quickly against Intel. Besides the idea that a wet fart would cost less than the 11900k, it would be tough for a new player to surpass a company that's been producing CPUs for almost four decades.
Did Bulldozer get overlooked? Being x86 doesn’t guarantee similar speed or capability.
I’m starting to understand why I shouldn’t wait for this outdated situation to end. We accept FX problems now. XD
In summary, core for core. Skylake and newer models offered clear upgrades over Haswell/Broadwell. I’ve used Haswell-E, Broadwell-E, Skylake, Coffee Lake, Zen, Zen+, and even older Intel chips. On the benchmarks, Zen 3 could easily surpass an overclocked Ivy Bridge EP Xeon. While Ivy Bridge, Haswell, Broadwell, Skylake, Kaby Lake, and Coffee Lake were essentially upgraded versions of Skylake, they still lagged behind newer generations. With overclocking potential, a Zen+ chip could still outperform them. Clock speeds ranged from Haswell to Broadwell, which is good since Broadwell was solid, but Zen+ chips had limited speed options and required powerful RAM to reach their full potential. For gaming, the 2700X struggled against cheaper 8600K chips on budget boards, though it handled SLI better than expected—though that might have been luck. Zen/Zen+ chips performed well thanks to affordable motherboards and AMD’s focus on core quantity. They weren’t top-tier, but they were reliable and affordable. My choice leaned toward Zen/Zen+ because I’ve seen a wider range of options in those lines, and AMD’s strong presence made them a solid pick.
