NVIDIA Achieves Record Number of Design Wins for Intel ‘Sandy Bridge’ PC Platform
PC manufacturers are poised to launch a record 200 new products in the first half of 2011 that feature NVIDIA GeForce graphics processing units (GPUs), paired with the new generation of Intel Sandy Bridge CPUs. The designs are expected to span a variety of notebook and desktop systems from leading OEMs including Acer, Alienware, ASUS, Dell, Fujitsu-Siemens, HP, Lenovo, Samsung, Sony, Toshiba and more.
“Demand from OEMs for discrete graphics solutions remains strong and above historic levels,” said Dean McCarron of Mercury Research. “We are projecting healthy growth in the years ahead for discrete GPU solutions for both notebook and desktop. Based on the current attach rate for GPU shipments, Mercury Research forecasts that discrete GPU shipments will double between 2009 and 2014.”
