We can often think that a company specialized in a specific type of hardware does not want to develop other types of components because it does not know exactly the field, but in the case of NvidiaThey know exactly what they want to do in the future. And the company announced a long time ago that it would strive to enter the processor market, and now we know that it wants to compete with Intel and AMD in this market, with a project that it could present next year, some processors based on ARM created by themselves.
From all manufacturers of components of PC, Nvidia It is one of the most important in recent years since its products represent a large part of the market, both at user and enterprise level, mainly due to the technological advances they have made in terms of AI and others. This has led them to explore new horizons since it is one of the companies with the highest revenues in the world, surpassing at times some as important as Microsoft and Apple, so they have enough budget to try to enter other areas. .
NVIDIA’s plans for 2025 involve being competitive in the processor market
We have recently seen how one of the large companies dedicated to the manufacture of SoCs for mobile devices has entered the computer processor scene, and although its appearance only concerns portable devices, it is the first contact that many users have had with the ARM architecture. However, after the arrival on the market of Qualcomm processors based on this architecture, since Nvidia They plan to compete with Intel and AMD in this area, as they will also start producing Processor based on ARM.
Some experts assure that the company would have an easy time entering this market for several reasons, one of them being the fact that it already dominates the markets for AI servers and that of GPUs dedicated to PCs, which which would allow them to have an additional level of confidence. On the other hand, this company is not unknown in the field of processors, and it has a lot of experience in the field thanks to the developments it has had such as the Grace CPUs and the Tegra application processors.
The DigiTimes report assures that the brand would prepare the introduction of a high-end CPU and GPU platform based on ARM architecture for consumers in September 2025, while it would have a “commercial launch” in March 2026. Big problem that the company could face in this case would be the same one that Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite is going through, the compatibility of all applications.
Although NVIDIA can solve this problem easily, since they collaborate with a large number of software companies, including video game developers, so it would not be strange if they made modern games compatible with their ARM processor in taking advantage of its unique abilities.
