Nvidia introduces mobile processor with 192 ... - TeK.sapo

Nvidia introduced the Tegra K1, its new generation of processors, an event that preceded the Consumer Electronic Show (CES). Intended for mobile devices, K1 must “computer” technology since they are based on Kepler architecture that was originally designed for PC and even supercomputers.

As a point of highlighting the K1 feature Tegra 192 graphics processing cores , a significant improvement over the 70′s Tegra 4. The differences between the chips are notorious, says Engadget, with the biggest gains will be experienced in running games.

The Tegra K1 will support the graphics engine Unreal Engine 4 and will also support the OpenGL protocol 4.4. Tablets, especially in the future and maybe smartphones equipped with these processors will be able to run games with a higher level of detail: more brightness levels, reflections, textures and even elements like drops of water will become more realistic than ever <. / p> The new range of processors will be available in two versions: one with 32-bit quad-core processor at 2.3GHz, with a fifth processor for the most basic tasks, and a version with 64-bit Denver dual-core processor at 2.5 Ghz, an ARM chip high performance according to the plans of Nvidia.

Natively K1 will not support 4G networks, but they were built so it could be “paired” with a extra chip to ensure LTE capabilities to smartphones and tablets.

The new processors will hit the market late in the first half of the year, with the U.S. operator AT & T and Vodafone UK have already certified the new chips.
