14 DAY TRIAL // NVIDIA insists that Logan will not be called Tegra 5, which suggests that Tegra 6 will not be called, well, Tegra 6. But that's beside the point.
Something amazing might happen in 2014. Even though NVIDIA is expected to only launch Logan next year, a rumor has arisen, telling otherwise.
According to said rumor, NVIDIA's Tegra 6 will also debut in 2014, and might make Logan look like an amateur.
A lot to live up to, to be sure, given how Logan is supposed to enable console-level gaming on tablets via Kepler graphics.
Nevertheless, the report says that Tegra 6 will have 64-bit capable ARM cores. Having licensed the ARMv8 architecture years ago, this might actually happen. Probably something involving Cortex A15 A53/A57 cores or better.
If nothing else, it would all certainly catapult NVIDIA ahead of all the other x86 or ARM-based mobile CPUs and SoCs.
