Notre confrère x86-secret.com a récemment mis en ligne une petite discussion par mail avec Nvidia concernant le futur nForce:
[X86-secret] Nvidia make the Nforce for AMD processor, but, will Nvidia make also a chipset as good for Intel processors ?
[Alain Tiquet] The nForce is enabled for Intel FSB, but we do not have a licence agreement yet
[X86] If yes, will it be only for Pentium 4 processors ? or also for Celeron/Pentium 3 ?
[A.T.] It's valid for PIII.
[X86] If that chipset will exist can you give some features ?
[A.T.] see above, products spec are similar.
[X86] Have you got a roadmap about Nvidia chipset for mainboard ?
[A.T.] nForce architecture use GeForce2 graphics. Future release with later graphics will come, exact time and content have to be worked.
[X86] Does Nvidia envisage to make a Geforce 3 Go ? if yes have you got some features about it and do you know when it will be annonce ?
[A.T.] Like the GeForce2 architecture that has been tuned for many different market segments, the GeForce 3 architecture will benefit from such segmentations.
Final products features and specifications will be released at launch time.
[X86] What do you think about the futur ATI Radeon 2 and Kyro 3 ?
[A.T.] NVIDIA talk about product specifications and feature at effective launch time and availability of the product. We'll tell you when we can get competitors products on the shelves
[X86] Nvidia make graphique chip, and now chipsets, does Nvidia envisage to make processor in the futur ?
[A.T.] No
Alain Tiquet nous explique clairement que le nForce fonctionne déjà avec le Pentium III et qu’il ne manque qu’une petite validation.
En ce qui concerne le PIV, Nvidia ne dévoile rien.
Le nForce qui sortira sur la base du GeForce2, devrait évoluer avec le Geforce 3.
En résumé Nvidia s’apprête à mettre le deuxième pied dans le plat du géant Intel, encore heureux pour ce dernier qu’il n’envisage pas de "bricoler" des processeurs dans leur garage à la sauce APPLE.
