Nvidia Readies Mobile GeForce 8-Series GPU Shortly

Nvidia Corp., a leading designer of graphics processors and core-logic sets, said it would release mobile graphics processors with the DirectX 10 support for the next-generation Intel Centrino Pro mobile platforms. The company’s chief executive officer said that such chips were already being “sampled” during the most recent quarter conference call.

Intel Centrino Pro mobile platform earlier code-named Santa Rosa is projected to be released early in 2007 and it is also highly-likely that its release timeframe will coincide with the launch of Microsoft Windows Vista operating system, e.g., the 30th of January, 2007.
