Reports about NVIDIA making x86 chips have recently resurfaced, but the companys CEO Jen-Hsun Huang just denied the rumors during the interview with Cnet.
NVIDIAs strategy is very, very clear. Im very straightforward about it. Right now, more than ever, we have to focus on visual and parallel computing.
Our strategy is to proliferate the GPU into all kinds of platforms for growth, he said. GPUs in servers for parallel computing, for supercomputing - and cloud computing with our GPU is fabulous growth opportunity - and streaming video.
And also getting our GPUs into the lowest power platforms we can imagine and driving mobile computing with it, Huang added, referring to its Tegra chip which powers Microsofts Zune HD media player.
Jen-Hsun Huang told Expreview in June that theyre seriously evaluating and discussing about the possibilities of working with Globalfoundries, but when asked by Cnet if they had plan to outsource part of its manufacturing to the fab, Huang simply said no.
Globalfoundries is an AMD fab, right? Globalfoundries is AMDs fab. Our strategy is TSMC.

หลังจากนั้นก็มีการถามถึงความร่วมมือระหว่าง Globalfoundries กับ nVIDIA
ก็ได้รับคำตอบกวนๆมาว่า "Globalfoundries เป็นบริษัทลูกของ AMD ใช่ป่ะ? เราเลือก TSMC มากกว่า"
สรุปคือ ต้องการสยบข่าวลือที่ว่าจะไปทำ CPU ไปเน้นด้านเอา GPU มาช่วยทำงานมากกว่า
แต่ที่งี่เง่าที่สุดคือเอาตัวไปผูกกับ TMSC ซึ่งถ้ารอบหน้าการผลิตยังห่วย สุดท้ายเดี๋ยวก็ต้องออกมากลืนน้ำลาย ส่วน AMD นั้นสบายๆ จะใช้ TMSC หรือ Global Foundries ก็ได้ ถ้า โรงงานหลักผลิตได้ดีกว่า TMSC งานเข้าแน่ๆ nVIDIA เพราะปัญหาผลิต Fermi และของเสียเยอะก็มาจาก TMSC นี่แหละ AMD ยังโดนเลย
