NVIDIA denies exit from core logic market

Saturday 02nd August 2008, 01:33:00 PM, written by Rys

NVIDIA, in email communication with the Tech Report, has denied it is leaving the PC core logic market after a news report by Digitimes claimed it was.

The original story, citing a confidential source at a Taiwanese mainboard vendor, claimed that the Californian company was set to get out of the core logic business completely, following a meeting with its mainboard partners not too long ago.

In email to TR, NVIDIA's head of PR for its platform products said that Digitimes' story was completely groundless.

Revenue for the third quarter was $1.07 billion, up 4.9% sequentially. Non-GAAP gross margin of 52.5% was a record for the fifth consecutive quarter Gross margin exceeded our expectations for the quarter, primarily as a result of strong demand and the high-end segments of our desktop GPU products and record sales in our Quadro professional graphics products. Non-GAAP OpEx was $317.6 million, slightly below our estimate. Combined, these results generated a non-GAAP net income of $217 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, up 12.1% over the prior quarter..

Good job by Nvidia. Where's Charlie now? He can go take a hike.

I see everyone is gearing up for BF3 :razz:

Joking aside, this is great news. We need at least 2 successful IHVs.

The dev boards are using Tegra 3.... but the statement reads "by 2014" so probably something A15 or Denver based.

Tegra 3 has PCIe?

I think they mean that it will take them that long to do all the R&D and stuff.
