NEW DELHI: Chipmaker Intel’s hold on the personal computing market is facing a whole new threat from Nvidia . This paves the way for laptops that run fully on ARM chips paired with Nvidia’s PC-class gaming GPUs, something that hasn’t been seen so far. Apple has said that it plans to transition completely away from Intel’s chips for all of its personal computing devices by 2023. Fellow GPU giant, AMD, has also been working with mobile chipmaker Samsung to build synergy between its GPUs and Samsung’s ARM-based chips. While companies like Apple and Microsoft have been pushing for personal computing devices to run on ARM-based chips, Nvidia’s GDC demo also paves the way for gaming laptops on such chips.
