Nvidia CFO resigns

[wahdangun]

I think you do not quite understand what this is.
Project Denver is NOT an APU like i3 or brazos.
Fermi is NOT a GPU

Because of those two facts, you cannot quite understand the point of it and the impact it will have.

Also, nobody cares if the nVidia CFO resigns, the only important person in all of nVidia is their korean overlord, damn that guy kicks ass.

Fermi is a MPPU : massively parallel processing unit / in the sense that it is NOT designed to do graphics tasks, but it CAN do them because most graphics tasks are massively parallel.

This in turn implies that their 'Project Denver' will effectively be a MPPU/ CPU mix which will be a type of *PU that does not currently exist : a 512 micro-core + X fast big multipurpose core chip.

Thus . not an APU like i3 or brazos, which are both CPU+pcie+GPU on die.

That in itself is the biggest asset nVidia currently has, and a potential to x5 their stock in the following years, should their release match their vision (which it has for Fermi 1.1 aka GTX580).

Why ? because such a *PU would, by nature, be many times faster than a CPU for many business applications, including databases and other stuff --> Share in the server market and high-end desktop --> money --> win.

That is, of course, if nVidia delivers what they said they would (85% chances imho, even if it takes 4 releases) and if Intel does not manage to produce an equivalent by then (which might be impossible considering they are 10 years behind nVidia in graphics and 3+ years in MPPU).

wow, so thats mean HD 6990 is more MPPU than fermi does ??? because in real world amd have more parallel processing power than fermi just look at compute4money or other distributed computing program, heck even HD 5870 is faster than GTX 480 ???? so what are LLANO and brazos called ??? APU right ???
