that all sounds fine but I just wish more drivers would be opensource for ARM cpus

What makes me happy is that this doesn't just bring a new competitor into the CPU space But it heavily boosts Linux and Linux gaming, that's exciting I also love the idea of a low powered ARM small form factor motherboard, you wont have to think of water cooling, or big CPU coolers You could slap on a mini or passive cooler and slap on a full size GPU

I love how Nvidia use Linux to test their products, but refuse to make it easy to run their drivers on it without running into a million issue. I hope that it'll change in the future.

as always very informative videos, looking forward on your next one Gary

I was waiting for your review about this demo, thanks

They should have supported the raspberry pi foundation. There’s a huge market for such a pairing.

Learned a ton, thank you Gary.

Did i heard correctly this all happened on Linux 🧐🧐, correct Nvidia drivers for Linux, even Ray tracing. Am i will definitely buy arm laptop on RTX 3060 if it has Linux, after this news and steam deck one Linux gaming has best opportunity to shine.

Cortex A78 still isn't anywhere near i7 or i8/9 x86 processors, performance wise that is. I understand this is probably to an extent because they are restricted by the power envelope, but it's definitely interesting to see where this goes (Desktops/Laptops etc ) nonetheless.

Interesting videos as always 🤠

This is amazing 🔥🔥

Nvidia & ARM have a great opportunity to do this very right & absolutely shake up the game by shipping devices with Linux, giving them greater control over software. A gaming Chromebook held down by a Linux VM doesn't sound great, whereas a bare metal Linux on ARM experience would truly deliver (especially with Valve's increased effort with Proton)

I wonder how they got this to work... Does the MediaTek SoC have a complete PCIe block (i.e. one that can generate IO space packets - most PCIe blocks in ARM SoC do not have this capability, which includes the Raspberry Pi). Or were the drivers re-written to not require an IO space initialization (is that even possible?). Or was the firmware on the GPU changed to not require IO space initialization. My guess is that it's the first option - the MediaTek SoC has a PCIe block that looks more like something you would expect on an x86 CPU/SoC. (The other options would probably violate backward compatibility with x86 - i.e. the card / drivers would ONLY work with ARM SoCs).

This demo by Nvidia was really cool. It’s a good show case for both Linux and ARM gaming. Which means it could help bring games to the Mac platform. And it also means more competition and options for CPUs.

Have you also seen Sv4-_a_3BKg where someone got an AMD RX6700XT running on a RISC-V system? These are the final days for x86.

Hoping that with games being compiled to support ARM, + the samsung s22 having an AMD gpu we will be able to run desktop games on it in the future

As someone who soon might need to create Nvidia GPU drivers for *nix like OS, this sounds very promising

great video. NVidia has Linux aarch64 drivers for quite a while... Jetson Nano and Xavier are Arm based and running Linux Arm64 as well.

2:50 rtx worked for a while on Linux and on Linux on arm but they haven't demoed yet

That sounds awesome - not only could it mean a bit more of an audience for Linux Gaming, which I'm all for, but also these ARM-Processors have a MUCH LOWER power draw than current Desktop CPUs have. Of course, it that is due to their lower amount of hardwired processing commands, but maybe it's time to get rid of "overhead" there - I think for that matter, Apple's Silicone APUs really did make an awesome point - also thinking in terms of sustainability and power use reduction instead of increase (as with most GPUs still the case sadly). I wonder if there could be new processing methods/commands implemented into GPUs, too, though, that would allow to even "emulate" older commands, if necessary at fast enough speeds to allow to drop their complexity, too (since Apple Silicone can emulate via Rosetta 2 X86 fairly well / well enough, i.m.h.o. while still drawing less power by a significant factor). So, we have the Technology to probably save our Civilization if we can get resource cycles (recycling) put into place properly by incentives and/or regulations, too - so none of them go to waste anymore instead of so many, that they become a hazard to Nature (as it is up to now still the case). I'm really excited about the possibilities these developments introduce on a grand scale as "pieces of a puzzle" we need to get sh*t done... Cheers and thanks for this inspiring video about part of these developments...

Is anyone realizing how insane the next switch will be

You could talk a little bit about the Vulcan API because I think Nvidia is using the Vulkan API as DirectX is still not properly supported by ARM processors.

Can't wait to see the Tegra Orin chip and how that performs

The only problem I'd have with an ARM-based gaming desktop PC is compatibility. Proton is a thing, and there's other avenues of software emulation out there, but none of it is or ever will be perfect, and if switching to a new architecture for my PC build means losing the use of all or even a chunk of my game library, that's not gonna be fun. These concerns aside though, I agree with everyone else that these are exciting times, and I'm looking forward to what else can be accomplished with ARM, especially in the gaming sphere.

*GARY!!!* *Good Afternoon Professor!* *Good Afternoon Fellow Classmates!* Stay safe out there everyone!

They did say back then when they presented the first RTX series card that they were compatible with riscv and arm. But they never show any application or test and as far as I know only big companies had access for drivers, that's a weird way of being "open" about the compatibility, but then again, it's Nvidia :/.

can't wait to use my phone as my main computer

ok, I am sold on this, where do I buy this mythical ARM PC?

Imagine Nvidia making their own "gaming Linux distro".

I hope we see DIY desktops in the future, an open platform as or more open as current x86 platforms, that we can buy mainboards, have sockets, can put a CPU and RAM into it and so on, that would be great. And I hope AMD releases ARM processors in the future and make their GPUs compatible with other platforms. I don’t like proprietary drivers, like the ones by Nvidia.

Arm gpu cores would be amazing 🤩

arm chips are the future

OK. I'll put my order in for a Rpi.4 CM.

I don't know how cpu intensive are ray tracing games... would be great to see cpu intensive game running on arm cpus

Frickin' sweet!

In your Microsoft Linux distro video a couple of days ago, you were saying there is no / little chance of MS switching the Windows kernel to Linux. As allegedly (I've never used it) Windows for Arm sucks massively, were as Linux in the demos in your video, and as part of Mac OS, etc. is running really well on Arm, and considering MS's general inability to get the first few releases of a product to no suck, if there is a major move away from x86, and / or Intel gets into trouble, Windows could be in real trouble.

Linux ia now rising with ARM with Nvidia thru gaming!

finaly the building loxks for rtx on phones

The future looks very promising for tech.

How a sd845 running crysis 3 GTA IV? Pls explain

This Arm thing seems to have some legs.

Does this mean egpu is coming to mac m1s?

This make me excited about exynoss 2200

They should add a cpu to the graphic and build a sbc

Can this please exist for the Steam Deck 2?

Never skip ARM day, game developers...

Okay. What this sounds like to me is that this type of computer / architecture is using new technology, as opposed to the x86 tech. Thank you.

So what you are telling me is that soon we will be able to play Crysis on a thermostat? ...I mean... I've got a pi4. Which is (not) a thermostat... but I can play Doom 3 in it just fine! Which is something.

Wanna have an opportunity to install on new generation RP5 Nvidia GT 1030 GPU. Would have been fantastic!

Nvidia porting their own drivers to Linux in order to test their latest technology.. Interesting! What does Linus Torvalds think about this?

YES, external GPUs for mobile phones. I want dockable phones so bad :D

m1 rn: 👀

ARM now with Nvidia will promote Linux to be as same or even better platform for gaming than Windows (Steam is already trying that with x86) and Microsoft will be eventually forced to accept ARM as gaming CPU same as x86 is today especially when paired with Nvidia GPUs. ARM with Nvidia is going to be quite a game changer with power to force and steer PC gaming into new direction finally with Linux as adequate option to Windows with MS adjusting to that. I want to see future PCs running games on Linux with ARM or x86 same or better than on Windows. Fingers crossed, it will be cool to watch the fight till the end.

Arm architecture is very good and as powerfull as others kind of architecture, it was just needing a little more attention from the big companies like Nvidia and others out there

but all games I play are heavy cpu intensive, like squad

Maybe this is for Switch 2

ARM and RISC v is the future

It appears to me that Apple has shown a very bright light on what can be done with ARM and NVIDIA joining the fray is really getting past the critical mass - but I've been burned before on predictions. :^) Unless Intel can solve some serious X86 problems (maybe even ditching x86 and coming out with something different to move forward on - but not ARM....) it does look like x86 days are numbered.

👍👍

Linux and ARM are Gaining those Pumps.

Sir, I have a deep question about Steve Jobs put multitouch displays from tablets in iPhone At that time the news of multitouch display like things and tablets are exit or invented are only know by tops So Steve jobs know this because they are working with tops So where we can also get today's discoveries in technology news.

please make a content about X86 architecture coz everything move to arm right know

I want to Know what Linus has to says about it

I want an ARM PC with an ARM Microsoft OS with an ARM GPU. I'll probably have to sell my "ARM" for that but count me in.

Without any x86 components?... What about the GPU?

new Linux by Nvidia soon?

aight I wanna play cyberpunk on my raspberry pi

On a 3060Ti

ARM-based Nvidia. Boy, that kinda talk is on the wrong "tube" site. 🥵

It was running Arch Linux 🥳🥳🥳

The only company that can make a chip faster than Apple’s M1 is NVIDIA period

Anyone that think MS isn't looking into this with WoA is been naive, to say the least. And for those that were still wondering, that acquisition should now make perfect sense.

Nothing surprising here - Wolfenstein Youngblood is already both on Nintendo Switch and Stadia so all of the tools are there. Pairing it with MediaTek - nothing out of the ordinary though not what would come first to mind. I can't be really happy about "RTX is the way to do Ray tracing" marketing push. A bit blatant attempt to create association of what ARM will be able to do once Nvidia's acquisition is over (hint - those two things are completely unrelated). Looking at the Nvidia blog, the GPU is RTX 3060. I can't find the bandwidth specs of the PCIe on the Mediatek SoC - that could've been one of the defining factors explaining the choice of GPU to pair. From all that we have a good ad and we know Nvidia is good in this department. Unrelated, why no links to sources?

Finally intel, AMD duopoly is coming to an end. It will surely still take time but these are interesting times indeed

Nvidia should make arm chip for handheld devices

The next thing is going to be Nvidia building GPU for MediaTek 😁

Is it confirmed Linux and not windows + x64 emulation?

Why partner with mediaTek when Nvidia used to design their own ARM stuff?

Personally I wouldn‘t mind having an ARM CPU in my Desktop but the only problem I do care about is that I want to use my x64 programs normaly but for this weed need more time I guess

What Gary said: blah blah (good info) blah blah What I heard: Native gaming on Linux

This is nvidias masterplan to beat AMD. Arm processors are in most portable devices these days. This is great for them as AMD is used in a lot of non pc devices like consoles and even the upcoming steam deck. If you remove the need for x86 cpus then AMDs cpu market will dry up.

Who wants to bet Nvidia will bring out a steam deck competitor in about 1yr pending the arm aquisition?!

The main reason that I became pro-ARM in the CPU space was because the licensing model, where as x86 is limited to only a few companies (primarily Intel & AMD). I think that ARM is great for competition, but I fear that if Nvidia acquire ARM, then those selling points of ARM may slowly disappear if Nvidia decide to become anti-competitive. Nvidia's history on Linux support has been poor in some respects compared to ATI (AMD) and the ARM ecosystem has so far been very Linux friendly and I wouldn't want to see that being disrupted by Nvidia. So I hope that ARM doesn't get bought out by Nvidia for these reasons amongst others. But I do welcome Nvidia taking steps to reduce dependence on x86 by working on this Linux, ARM, Nvidia combo. I hope that Nvidia becomes more of a bigger supporter of the Linux ecosystem and stops this attitude of lowering the quality of their Linux drivers due to fear of competitors seeing their driver code.

Can Windows run on ARM ?

Maybe they should talk to Steam if they are serious about Linux Gaming.

My wet dream is a quiet machine that doesn't toast my nuts when I have it my lap and doesn't run out of battery when I model shit in cad on the sofa. How energy efficient might this combo be with an Nvidia RTX chip? But awesome developments nevertheless.

A lot of resistance for an Nvidia buying Arm. Good chance it won’t happen.

Nvidia collaborating with Valve to bring DLSS and RTX to Linux using Proton, Valve then releasing an all AMD device running Linux, and then Nvidia showing their power in Linux on a ARM CPU, just a theory, but, this might be some contingency plan about some dark stuff that Microsoft is planning to do with Windows 🤔

yes if you want spyware on your chips

But what so amazing about this? x86 have been raytracing complex 3ds scenes for last two decades - Everyone's behaving as if Nvidia invented raytracing

A beefed up Nintendo switch

Nvidia should buy Arm and than go ahead and buy Sega and launch a Sega Dreamcatcher 3dfx Demon 5 ! Based on arm and nvida graphics

I believe the main purpose of Windows 11 is to embrace ARM to compete with Apple

A Linux based ARM PC no less...

Image a AMD or Nvidia console. They could just bypass the pc market all together. Thats scary

-Microsoft have been pushing ARM technology with their custom Qualcomm SQ1 chip and been working hard on Windows on ARM. -Intel coming with what we can call as big.LITTLE config on their upcoming CPU to further push the envelopes of both performance and efficiency of the x86 machine. -Apple came out with the most powerful ARM based SoC yet to be beaten which shut all the naysayer saying that ARM is poor at scalibility -Nvidia come with a promising future with what we can expect as a full flesh working PC on both Windows or Linux on ARM based CPU. No longer Intel or AMD exclusive (wish the part is modular). -Valve coming with semi-custom AMD based x86 machine in a custom Linux OS to gain back the crown of a hand held gaming machine from an ARM based hand held gaming machine. And it's a fully working PC! what an era to live seeing the battle to the crown of an x86 vs ARM machine.

The best part of it is Linux

So now Nvidia runs on Linus... the IRONY. Now they needed !!! CUS.. Win doen't !!! AGAIN IRONY

Well I can see nvidia becoming the next Apple. They’ve basically solved all the puzzle pieces. Now they're not constrained by OS platform

Gary did not explain anything this time.
