| Intel loves Nvidia for Optimus | | |

  Power saving technology Nvidia will soon launch its Optimus (non-Prime. sub.ed.) technology and we've learned that Intel really likes what Nvidia did this time. The technology is basically Hybrid SLI done right, but it works really well this time around. Nvidia will soon launch it, but the key point is that Optimus needs Intel’s IGP and lives in symbiosis with the GPU. Once Nvidia launches this technology, it won’t go against Intel’s IGP and will stop preaching that Intel’s HD IGP is bad. Since many Arrandale equipped notebooks are on the way, and Arrandale has an IGP inside the CPU socket, this was a logical decision for them to make. Jensen is a feisty player but he also knows when it is good to stop and simply make money. Intel’s advantage will be that Optimus only works with Intel IGPs and that Intel can defeat AMD even in GPU power, of course with the help of Nvidia GPUs and Optimus. |

 Soon We learned that Optimus, Nvidia's new power saving technology is going to be available also on its upcoming ION 2 GPU. Since ION 2 is not chipset and it is simply a GPU that interconnects with Intel’s Pine Trail platform, Nvidia can take advantage of Optimus technology even in this case. In some tasks, such as word processing, Nvidia will let Intel’s IGP to do the work and if the GPU power is needed for gaming or video encoding, ION2 will jump in and do the job. This is a good arrangement in Nvidia’s war against Intel’s IGP, as the two companies can now work together against their mutual enemy, AMD. We are still not sure when ION 2 is supposed to come to the market, but we would not be surprised to see some units at Cebit, the biggest European tradeshow that starts on March 2nd. |

楼主，NV的Optimus就是使用Intel i3、i5里的整合GPU的hybrid Power版而已。这个功能ATI‘s GPU早就实现了， ...

看样子，INTEL只有靠我国的煤老板出马收购了

就算有钱。I和美国也不会卖的。嘿嘿。移动只能算是国企而已。国家的钱。这么说，每个国家都能收购。但是这可能么？
