NVIDIA plans to team up with MediaTek for new computer chips shown at Computex next month. The companies will reveal ARM chips called N1 and N1X that compete with Qualcomm Snapdragon X models. These processors might contain ten powerful X925 cores working alongside ten efficient A725 cores. Several versions could serve different laptop needs, from basic work machines to gaming computers. Engineers still need to fix connection issues between chip parts and improve how they save power with Windows.
The project gives NVIDIA its first real chance to make PC central processors. MediaTek gains entry to the laptop market after making mostly phone chips before. Both firms hope to change Windows computers with new options beyond regular chips. Full production might wait until next year because of current technical problems. Computer makers want to know about program support and how well software works with these new chips.
NVIDIA will discuss goals and power needs during its main speech. MediaTek will follow up with details about chip layout and heat management across different uses. Their success depends on fixing current problems and setting clear release timelines.
