If you have been following the CPU market, you have probably heard about the struggles of AMD. AMD has been a worthy competitor to Intel in the past few years and has given Intel something to think about with some of its products. But Intel has the upper-hand on AMD now, and many are wondering whether the industry is big enough to have two giants.

No need to worry about AMD getting out of this market (let’s hope they don’t). Nvidia seems to be planning to enter the CPU market to produce chips for Netbooks and mobile devices. The netbook market has caught fire and what a better way for Nvidia to grab marketshare than entering a market that is super hot.

Details on this development are still unknown. It does seem logical for Nvidia to expand its reach in the computer industry by producing x86 chips that can be used on GPS, smartphones, and netbooks. But if I am AMD or Intel, I wouldn’t like this idea a whole lot. Then again, the industry needs some competition.
