Im Earnings Call zum aktuellen Quartalsergebnis (wir berichteten) gab NVIDIA Pläne bekannt, Chipsätze mit integrierter Grafik für Intel-Prozessoren auf den Markt bringen zu wollen.
Jen-Hsun Huang, Präsident und CEO von NVIDIA, gab sich zuversichtlich in diesem Markt große Erfolgsaussichten zu haben.
"And with the recent acquisition of AMD and -- recent combination of AMD and ATI, we are in a unique position to offer branded integrated graphics for the Intel processor market. Market demand for our product has been very high. We will respond to market demand and offer our first Intel integrated solution early next year. We expect this will significantly increase our addressable market for MCPs."
Auf die Frage eines Analysten, ob die Übernahme ATIs durch AMD NVIDIAs Entscheidung zum Eintritt in den Markt mit IGP-Lösungen für Intel begünstigt habe, antwortete Huang:
"The answer to your question is yes. We're going to go after the mainstream part of the market with our GeForce and nForce branded integrated graphics. And that market is obviously very, very large. And the opportunity to us is now quite significant, and the reason for that is directly related to ATI being sold to AMD. Now there is really a void of a branded, integrated graphics supplier in the Intel market, and that is an opportunity that we have stayed away from because there were other players that were serving that market before. But now with DX10 and high-definition and Blu-ray video and Vista, the bar for graphics capability has gone up so high in just one year's time we believe that that raised bar, as well as the fact that there is now a vacuum because ATI has left that market, it is just a wonderful opportunity for us. This is just the perfect time for us to enter it."
