Qin Feng's idea is that since the CPU is accelerated, or the architecture replacement cannot be immediately effective, it can be integrated.

Nowadays, the CPU is just a pure CPU, just responsible for the calculation, and the rest is not careless.

But in the future, the CPU will integrate the functions of the GPU, and the CPU itself will have certain GPU capabilities. It's not worse than some entry-level graphics cards, and even a little stronger.

In that way, not only will the performance be better than a single CPU plus a regular graphics card, but the price will also be cheaper.

This is very consistent with Qin Feng's low-price sales strategy.

And the only one that echoes Qin Feng's needs, needless to say, is the best object - Nvidia.

Nvidia, that is, the famous N card in later generations. In later generations, there is a distinction between A card and N card.

Undoubtedly, the N card is ahead of the A card in all aspects. It's just that after the cooperation between A card and AMD, there is the so-called spider effect, that is, they all use AMD's hardware, and there will be a certain bonus.

In Qin Feng's view, this is nothing more than an optimization of the driver, and in fact, the bonus effect is also limited.

And now, this Nvidia has not been established for long. I happen to have this money in hand, maybe I can do something.

However, when Qin Feng checked the information, he found that this matter was really a bit tricky.

The reason is simple, it has just partnered with Microsoft to launch DirectX 6.0.

Needless to say, anyone who uses a computer knows that this is a multimedia programming interface created by Microsoft. Implemented by the C++ programming language, following COM.

In short, DirectX enables Windows-based games or multimedia programs to be executed more efficiently, enhances 3D graphics and sound effects, and provides designers with a common hardware driver standard, so that game developers do not have to write different drivers for each brand of hardware, and also reduces the complexity of installing and setting up hardware.

The two sides have just cooperated, and Microsoft and Intel have a very close relationship, will the other party agree to cooperate with Nvidia?

After thinking about it, Qin Feng still tried to contact Nvidia.

I have to say that in this era, the people of Baodao are very powerful.

Before this, Yahoo's Yang Zhiyuan was a native of Baodao. And one of the founders of NVIDIA, Jensen Huang, is also a native of Treasure Island.

Last time, he cooperated with Yang Zhiyuan, so that Qin Feng obtained 10% of Yahoo's shares as he wished.

But this time, after Huang Renxun learned of Qin Feng's intentions, he directly refused, and refused directly without giving him a chance to bargain at all.

"Mr. Qin, we welcome cooperation. But this kind of cooperation, that's still dispensable. We, Nvidia and Microsoft, are just normal partnerships. Huang said with a smile.

Obviously, this is ridiculing Qin Feng, a company as powerful as Microsoft, and we are both mutually beneficial cooperative relations. You Qin Feng, how can you buy us.

Qin Feng bared his teeth, this irony really makes people feel painful.

Not only was the intention ridiculed, Huang also informed Microsoft about it.

Naturally, this is also a reciprocated peach. Knowing that Qin Feng and Intel are facing off, it is necessary for NVIDIA, as a Microsoft partner, to inform Microsoft of the movements of its competitors in another partner.

Microsoft, of course, also informed Intel directly.

After Intel learned about it, its president Grove frowned, endured his physical discomfort, and convened a board meeting.

"Grove, why don't you go for surgery, go for recuperation, and manage the company?" asked a number of directors with concern.

Because Grove has prostate cancer and has been suffering from Parkinson's disease, he plans to resign as president of Intel. And, the company has already looked for a successor: Craig Barrett.

However, Grove is known as Intel's most successful president, and without Grove there would be no Intel today. Therefore, although he needed to take a leave of absence due to illness, the board of directors still reserved a seat on the board of directors and certain rights for him. Hopefully, he will continue to keep an eye on the company. Give the company help when appropriate.

"I just received news from Microsoft that Qin Feng wants to cooperate with NVIDIA, it's that kind of acquisition-style cooperation!" Grove said with the pain in his body, "We must be cautious about this matter!"

Qin Feng wants to buy Nvidia?

Many directors look at each other, what does this have to do with the CPU battle?

Nvidia is a graphics processor, and both sides are not next to each other.

Qin Feng's acquisition may just be to simply expand the market. In other words, he decided that he could not compete with Intel in the CPU market, so he wanted to regain some face in the graphics market.

But that still can't shake Intel's position.

"Don't underestimate this Chinese person. He's not just going to move into the graphics market, I think, maybe he's—" Grove suddenly collapsed in his seat clutching his abdomen.

"Quick, ambulance!" exclaimed.

Soon, Intel called a helicopter rescue and sent him directly to the hospital.

This is a sign of a prostate cancer attack.

After an emergency rescue, it can be regarded as passing the dangerous period.

"Looks like I'm going to have to take a vacation. What about Barrett? I have something to tell him. Grove said weakly.

"Grove, if you have anything to say, rest well! Your body matters!" Barrett said worriedly.

"I'm afraid I won't have the energy to think about this anymore in the near future, so while I still have the energy, I'll explain you two things!" Grove said.

"Please, President!" Barrett shook Grove's hand.

"First of all, Qin Feng's move is definitely not simple. My guess is that he should have an idea of incorporating a graphics processor into the CPU to compensate for his CPU's innate floating-point computing power. That's why he wants to buy Nvidia. Remember, don't let him succeed!" Grove said, gasping for a long time.

Barrett exclaimed, but this, it's hard to do. Of course, at this moment, Grove's condition is so serious, he will not refute it.

"The second thing is that I am the best president of Intel, but the most wrong thing in my career as president of Intel is that I rely too much on Microsoft, which has led to Microsoft growing from a small company to a towering tree today!" Grove smiled bitterly, "Although we have cooperated with it, you have to remember that this cooperation is not strong." If the relationship between the two sides is not equal, then cooperation is not cooperation. ”

At this point, Grove had no strength, slowly closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

Barrett took a deep breath and slowly exited the room.

Subsequently, he officially became the president of Intel, and explained two things that Grove said at the meeting.

"Guys, these are the two things President Grove told me, I wonder what you think?"
