NVIDIA CEO strongly criticizes agreement between intel and amd

Intel's adoption of Radeon GPUs for its new Kaby Lake G processor has raised the bar, and one of the hardest hit in this equation is NVIDIA. The famous CEO of the green company, Jen-Hsun Huang, has commented on this event, with somewhat controversial statements.

NVIDIA says "future generations of AMD are in question"

When asked if this new partnership with AMD-Intel would make NVIDIA modify its future plans in the graphics card market, Huang replied: “Not really. I think it is a loss for AMD. His leadership for future generations is now in question. "

Huang also said that the fact that Intel adopted a Radeon GPU is "a public acknowledgment of the importance of the GPU."

The alliance between AMD-Intel seems to be a window to the future, where it is possible that we will see more and more MCM (Multi-chip-module) processors much more powerful than these early models of Kaby Lake G will be, and the most benefited will be the laptops.

The GPU market is about to change radically, especially with the departure of Raja Koduri from AMD to Intel. Koduri was the director of AMD's Radeon technology group and was instrumental in projects like the Vega GPU. You will now be tasked, in part, with launching Intel's efforts to create a dedicated GPU.

Although NVIDIA looks suspiciously at this agreement between Intel and its 'arch-enemy' AMD, it is also not closed to the possibility that it may have a similar agreement in the future; " We will cross that bridge when we cross that bridge." Jen-Hsun Huang said that he does not want to be a prisoner of his words, it seems to be.

The truth is that NVIDIA is not doing too badly, generating about $ 2.6 billion in the quarter that ended on October 31, although we are sure that they would have loved to have that agreement with Intel.
