#Nvidia alternative

The MTIA, likely RISC-V–based, has already seen limited deployment in Meta’s data centers but still works in tandem with Nvidia GPUs. If completed, it would mark one of the highest-profile RISC-V moves in the U.S., potentially giving Meta an internal path away from Nvidia’s dominant AI hardware. Earlier today, NVidia announced that they will be rolling out a firmware update for their popular Android-based gaming console which brings all the good stuff that Android KitKat has to offer, as well as a new feature called Remote GameStream. Speaking of additional features, the firmware update will also enable the NVidia Shield to support wireless mice/keyboards which will certainly come in handy when the Shield is on Console Mode. Along with the announcement of the upcoming Android KitKat update, which is expected to be seeded on the 2nd of April, NVidia is also giving the Shield a temporary $50 price cut until the end of next month. This means that you can get the NVidia Shield for only USD199.99, a hundred dollars less than its SRP when it first made its debut last year.

Over at CES, Las Vegas, NVidia has pulled the curtain to reveal their next mobile chipset, the Tegra K1 - which packs a whopping number of 192-cores in total to bring a much masterful gaming experience to smartphones & tablets.
