NVIDIA VP joins the smack-talk fun, says the Intel CPU is “dead”

Filed under:

Alright, we’re loving that new hyper-aggressive, sorta-nasty version of NVIDIA. Not only has CEO Jen Hsun-Huang promised to “open a can of whoop-ass” on Intel, the company has been touting its new sub-$45 integrated platform as far superior to Celeron-based systems, and now we’ve got VP of composition Relations Roy Taylor sending out emails saying that “a war has started” and pronouncing the Intel CPU “dead.” Roy says Intel is “panicking” considering CPUs have “run out of steam,” and that they “no longer assemble anything

run faster.” According to Roy — whose nickname is “Big Pipe,” no joke — the only thing that needs to get faster is the GPU, and NVIDIA’s going to build it happen. That’s some brash talk, all around — let’s hope NVIDIA’s ready when Intel brings Nehalem out to play. Check out the whole mail at the read link.
