Nvidia: Intel's Larrabee "a GPU from 2006"-> 1

Submitted by

Barence writes "Nvidia has delivered a scathing criticism of Intel's Larrabee, dismissing the multi-core CPU/GPU as wishful thinking — while admitting it needs to catch up with AMD's current Radeon graphics cards. "Intel is not a stupid company," conceded John Mottram, chief architect for the company's GT200 core. "They've put a lot of people behind this, so clearly they believe it's viable. But the products on our roadmap are competitive to this thing as they've painted it. And the reality is going to fall short of the optimistic way they've painted it. As [blogger and CPU architect] Peter Glaskowsky said, the 'large' Larrabee in 2010 will have roughly the same performance as a 2006 GPU from Nvidia or ATI." Speaking ahead of the opening of the annual NVISION expo on Monday, he also admitted Nvidia "underestimated ATI with respect to their product.""

  • Ok. Nvidia and AMD/ATI probably will overperform the Intel GPU. However Intel has open specs of their GPU-s, so for NOT the gamers there will be a quite good performance GPU to be used under Linux for various purposes with high quality OSS drivers. Im looking forward to it.
