With CES 2014 right around the corner, the folks at Nvidia is bringing the Tegra K1 into being. What's stunning is how it sports 192 CUDA cores. This just takes mobile gaming to desktop classifications, well sort of.
This screaming, mobile processor is an on-the-go chip that shouts with its desktop-ish heart. Why? Nvidia's bringing Unreal Engine 4 in the field, which is one of the biggest next-gen gaming engines that lived, to the Tegra K1. And who's to deny that it's one incredible move?
Of course, what is Nvidia without its stunning visuals simulated in front of the whole crowd? Here's an explosion. -Courtesy of Gizmodo- which shows off its graphic capabilities. Awesome.
This beast doesn't just scream photorealism. The K1 is bringing huge chunks from its big brethren in gaming, physics simulation, particle effects, lighting systems, and supports DirectX 11, OpenGL 4.4.
From a measly cartoon-esque graphics to accurate representations of human molecules, the K1 pushes out graphics that could easily surpass current-gen console or Gaming PC even. It certainly blows the last-gen consoles out of its league.
The Tegra K1 doesn't just come in a 32-bit quad-core configurations. It's also going to feature Nvidia's long awaited Denver CPUs, and will coming in a flavor that supports two of the 64-bit bad boys.
The Tegra K1 is well and good, packing a healthy amount of graphic processing capabilities. So far it looks superb, with its 192-core monster that could withstand fighting its console brothers, feature great graphic representation on mobile devices and hopefully have killer game titles ported on mobile (hopefully the K1 initiates it).
As far as this announcement goes, we have zero-hints on when this hits the mobile market. The price is probably off the roof too. I'd wager anyone's going to say "It's going to be wallet-friendly". I doubt that - very much. But be ready for its release. It's going to make huge rounds on 2014.
