NVIDIA Shows of the new Tegra GPU at Computex

Posted by Steve Greer on June 5, 2009 in Netbook Market, Netbooks, Operating Systems 

If you haven’t been following the hype behind the new Tegra GPU then let me catch you up.  NVIDIA is going to be releasing their line of Tegra MIDs (some are calling it a netbook) in the near future. 

NVIDIA claims that the Tegra can play 25 days audio, 10 hours of 1080p video on a single charge.  This blows away the current netbook. 

The OS for the Tegra systems will be Android or Windows CE.  NVIDIA claims you can also dual boot the system if you like.   The Tegra 600 and Tegra 650 will come with Firefox as your browser.

The Tegra 600 will be able to play H.264 video at 720p and the Tegra 650 will be able to play 1080p.  

RAM will be limited on the systems with standard being 512MB and going as low as 256MB.  The best part about the Tegra 600 and 650 is they will be priced at under $200.00.

Check out the video below and check out the Tegra 600 and 650 for yourself.

    Other reports that I have read confirm that the video performance and battery life are outstanding.

    The only negative that I have heard surrounds non-video applications (like web browsing) are a little slow.

    But for $200, I might be willing to be patient.

    It will be interesting to see how the market reacts.
