Intel won't let Nvidia make Nehalem chipset

Nvidia's Director or PR Derek Perez has told Fudzilla that Intel actually won't let Nvidia make its Nforce that will work with Nehalem generation of processors.

We confirmed this from Intel’s side as well as sources as Intel have told us that there won't be Nvidia's chipset for Nehalem. Nvidia will call this a „dispute between companies that they are trying to solve privatly“ but we believe its much more than that.

We all know that Jensen Nvidia’s CEO officially stated that Intel went over the edge with its comments about Nvidia. Ever since Nvidia entered the chipset license with Intel, Graphzilla was concerned with Intel's history of competing, and they would be naive not to.

If you are old enough you will remember that Intel killed VIA’s Pentium chipset business even VIA had a legitimate license. Intel was cool to Nvidia until recently, until the fact when Intel realized that graphics card might be used for more than gaming and after Nvidia’s bold decision to keep the SLI for itself. It was a tough decision to go against Intel but if Intel got the SLI for its X58 chipset or any previous Intel’s chipset business will be good as dead, or things would get much tougher then they are.

At this point Intel simply doesn’t want to honour its commitments toward he chipset license deal.

Nvidia has confirmed that it officially becomes the victim of what VIA, AMD and many other companies have felt for a long time as Intel tends to repress competition when threatened by superior product and technology.

Nvidia is not the cleanest company around but without Nehelem chipset their chipset business unit might actually suffer some heavy losses and this is not that Nvidia wants.

Despite the fact that Nvidia has a license, Intel simply decided to cut Nvidia off. Intel is playing dirty as Nvidia is the only company that has something that Intel really wants and it cannot get.

It’s a catch 22 situation as Nvdia wants SLI support for itself while Intel would love to get SLI for its Nehalem chipset but Nvidia doesn't want to give it away.

Intel was always bully and they simply won't let Nvidia make Nehalem which is not really fair and honest way of playing the game. At least Jensen and the rest of Nvidia are not sitting and waiting for the mercy, they are all up for the biggest fight of their careers.

Let’s not forget that Nvidia said that “Intel's attempt to unilaterally and publicly interpret a contract between the two companies is unprecedented and unsupportable both legally and commercially.”

This Nvidia vs Intel dispute is simply becoming more interesting by the hour.

Secalhar a nvidia tinha mais a ganhar com o chipset intel suportar SLi, porque o SLi iria-s massificar e ter mais suporte, ganhando mais dinheiro com a venda de graficas ou a venda de chipsets é mt rentavel?
Já agora, ha algum chipset actual ou previsto para am2 que suporte sli ? 780a ?
 
Última edição:
A nvidia não pensa nisso! Como os intel clockam muito mais, eles pensam que é o fim dos nForce! Mas se o SLI fosse para a intel, levaria a nvidia a trabalhar para fazer melhores chipsets, e quem ganhava eramos nós
 
na minha opiniao a nvidia nao ia lucrar(mais) por permitir SLI em intel, ou pelo menos nao tanto como ganha com o panorama actual
a minoria que usa SLI compra as boards na mesma, portanto quem manda sao eles(nvidia)
 
possessed disse:
o 780a tem suporte tri-sli e o 750a sli, e os mais antigos tb - 590a e por ai

e na minha opinião dos melhores chipsets para AM2 (no caso do 590).. acho que isto podia para já jogar a bom favor da amd.. chegasse a um ponto que o grande bootleneck está nas gráficas e não nos cpus.. quem sabe se isto não ajuda mas é a AMD a ganhar terreno..

porém acho que a resposta pode ser obviamente ser não dado a AMD e a ATI serem uma agora..

será que é tempo da nvidia lançar os seus próprios CPUs?
