Nvidia started counting days to step into the computer processor world. Accordingly, the release date for the Nvidia ARM computer processor, which came to the agenda last spring, has also emerged. However, let us remind you that this information is a leak and has not yet been confirmed by Nvidia.
When will the Nvidia computer processor be released?
Computer processors have been in the hands of x86 processors for over fifty years. Intel was the sole master of this market for a long time. However, with the artificial intelligence revolution, both Intel and AMD were a little behind this revolution. Again, the problems experienced in Intel’s latest processors seem to have mobilised Nvidia. Again, the company is seeking to spend the experience and capital obtained in artificial intelligence processors on this new target.
According to the emerging details, Nvidia is looking to enter the computer processor market with ARM-based processors. As you know, Nvidia already has experience in ARM processor development. The company, which once developed Tegra processors for mobile phones, still continues to develop ARM-based mobile processors.
According to rumours, the company’s first ARM-based computer processor will appear in September 2025. Although the features of this processor are not clear, it was previously leaked that it will be supported by artificial intelligence. The processor is expected to go through the 3 nm abrication process. Nvidia is expected to apply to TSMC in processor production.
Finally, Qualcomm stepped into the ARM-based computer processor market with the Snapdaragon X Elite processor. Although AMD uses x86 architecture, it is the sole dominator of the emerging handheld console market.
Main differences between ARM and x86 processors
The computer processors dominating the market today use x86 architecture. This architecture is CISC based. Nvidia will introduce its new computer processors with ARM, that is, a RISC-based system. However, Apple has revived the ARM-based computer revolution that ARM started in its time. Here Nvidia is trying to take this revolution one level higher.
Basically, CISC is based on a more complex instruction system. This command system, which is longer and more complex, can provide an advantage especially in multi-load operations. RISC, on the other hand, basically has a much simpler instruction system. In this sense, RISC is a shorter and simpler CISC is a longer and more complex instruction system.
Today, the M processors used in mobile phones and Mac computers in recent years are ARM-based processors. These processors can accommodate more than one processing module alone. This allows operations to be performed much faster.
