Since then, it has been... |

NVIDIA's GK104 Kepler GPU was invented for the GeForce GTX 680 graphics card, but the company has decided to use them for lower-end video boards as well. TSMC makes loads of GK104 wafers each day, but many of the GPUs come out with defects, meaning that not all of those 3.5 billion transistors work properly. ... |

Nvidia is reportedly working on an improved version of its very popular, but already semi-obsolete Tegra 3 mobile chips. Tegra 3 was quite an unlucky and short-lived chip.
