Nvidia CPU's? Nvidia is looking at a takeover bid for ARM

It looks like SoftBank might pull out. Any deal will take years to get over the line and by that time the value of ARM will increase. The stock offering of Nvidia is overvalued and the cash part is insignificant. It looks like any future “owner” of ARM can only act in a custodial capacity.
 
Finally some good news! :)

Acquiring arm would have been the downfall of nvidia. Arms china branch going rogue is a bigger issue than its seems. Even softbank wants nothing to do with arm and are trying to get rid of it.

Yeah, dirty Jensen Huang won't get that. They still can use ARM design and sell products, why do they even want to buy whole company?Answer is easy, to destroy competition and gain monopoly. Everyone expected the purchase to fail, finally some good news in the year of corona virus.

Looks like nvidia put a deposit down with SoftBank of $1.2 billion and its non refundable lol. :cry:

As one of those who was affected by Nvidia Bumbgate at the time - and remember nobody outside of the USA got anything - I guess this could be karma or a fine of sorts. Excepts, all the millions affected by bad solder joints should get some of the money not SoftBank :(
 
Watch AMD and Intel shares skyrocket tomorrow when they learn there will no longer be a 3rd competitor in the integrated and APU space.

Intel gets to keep its dominant position in supplying CPUs in laptops for another decade and AMD has almost no competition - pretty much gaurantee the next PlayStation and Xbox will use AMD APUs again

Nvidia can still compete in the APU market, they don't need to own ARM for that. It will just be slower as they will need to build their microarchitecture team themselves (or via smaller acquisitions) rather than integrate it from ARM. Nvidia already have a perpetual ARM license (like Apple).
