Nvidia Trumpets Death of the CPU

it seems not to be true what it has been said about this conflict..because i own an acer aspire M5500 which runs a Dual Core processor(1.8) and a Nvidia 7200SE and i experience total harmony on multi-tasks especially games! it's not true-as a personnal point of view-that intel won't increase the capabily of its processors because the performance of P4 is below the one of a Core Duo or Quad Core..
I think that the speech of this man springs from personnal commercial interests!..

yeah biggest my ass... how about amd.. while intel was pumpin up speed amd were changing their processors architecture to cut dead times, thus eliminating bottlenecks. let's not forget amd64x2 was after all the first desktop dualcore. but they are right if they are to advance anymore they have to rethink the whole CPU architecture and implement some of the latest advances in semiconductor phisics that are avilable right now.

Obviously CPU is running out of date.....

If a GPU can make so much algorith in terms of Maths to provide output..... So why Nvidia cant make their own NPU (N for Nvidia)...

If Nvidia acquired Ageia PhysX and incorporated it in their GPUs.... and AMD incorporated RV 670 based GPU in its processors...... SO NVIDIA can implement GPU CPU PPU........ All in one..... Just think guys....nforce...geforce....SLI.....Gelato...Cuda..... and what about Intel???

I'm just making a debate......after all.....

oh! wuoah.. oh..
This is going to be fun!
The more competition, the more killer GPUs and CPUs!!

Oops, my bad..
I'm just being excited.

Yeah but Intel extreme is faster than celeron, and new and improved CPU save more energy ( making less energy bills), has more security, better performance, and more stability. And the new operating systems probably won't work with an CPU from a few years ago. And without a CPU the computer won't work at all, and it's more important than a graphics card, not for gamers, but without the CPU how will u play your game?

I still upgrade both though.

like in April of 2007 i heard that (it could have been just a rumor) in 2010 there was going to b a new technology
32 core processors

i belive that the future will be with paralel archtecture.... I belive that multi core processors are being slowed down by their data buses, because, think of it, you may have the biggest castle, it matters also how large are the doors.

Paralel computers are quite a nighmare for programmers, but slowly, because of multi-core technologies, they will be able to program them.... The CPU vs GPU fight has a source in General Sollution vs Particular Sollution fight... so nobody will win, because there is the need for specialised processing as is need for general one. I want to see any computer boot up via Cuda. When they do this one they'll see what i mean.

Sorry if my english is that bad....

Huh? Haven't most or all of you missunderstood this e-mail? He is essentially saying that todays CPU's are so good that they are not taxed by todays games and software. GPu's however are, it could be argued that this is because the requirement for graphics power is increasing, but it could also be argued that Intels R&D has outsripped Nvidias so much that no matter what CPU or graphics card you have the graphics card will always be the bottleneck.

This is hardly an attack on intels job performance if anything a complement, but they rightly point out that Intel may have done themselves out of a job. Nvidia falsely see this as an opprtunity as it means more profit in their sector and less in intels.

What they fail to see is that Intel will quickly identify that processors are becoming a cash cow and seek to dominate the increasingly profitable graphics card indusrty, again they will outsrip Nvidia in technology (economies of scale talent pre-existing patents etc) only this time as direct competitiors, thereby all but bankrupting Nvidia in a matter of years. LOL.

Not interesting for Nvidia.... TERRIFYING.
