Intel and Nvidia team up on Intel x86 RTX SoCs for future gaming PCs [and Nvidia is investing $5 billion in Intel shares] (www.techspot.com)

Nvidia is also investing $5 billion into Intel

What just happened? Intel has received another massive investment from an unlikely source: Nvidia. Team Green is purchasing $5 billion in Intel common stock at $23.28 per share, part of a collaboration that will see the two companies jointly develop x86 system-on-chips – called Intel x86 RTX SoCs – that integrate Intel CPUs and Nvidia RTX GPU chiplets for a wide range of PCs. Intel will also be building custom x86 data center CPUs for Nvidia to integrate into its AI infrastructure platforms. [...]

I want RISC-V to win so badly.

[–] Lumisal@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I think it will since China has began to fund support for it pretty heavily.

It's a bit funny how China has been heavily investing into open source, but I guess it makes sense - it's tech they can use readily and save money on using while also disrupting the profits and influence of western corporations. It's clearly for political reasons but hey at least the open source community wins

Has there been any disruption of profits and influence of western corps due to RISC-V? To my knowledge, not yet and its not a sure thing.

Im not entirely sure your point of view is a win for OS. When other nation states view it as a threat instead of an option it leaves the door open for all the sabotage, etc. that nation states to to each other.

Not yet, but something like Deepseek did disrupt some profits. If RISC-V keeps developing and lowering in costs it my may do the same, but as of now it's still pretty pricey and experimental in use.

I'm just talking about the hardware here. Hardware is much more agnostic, and the costs going down + it being open means other countries can eventually manufacture their own at a lower start up cost and increased profits compared to say ARM.
