Just saw Nvidia has acquired ARM. I wonder how this might effect nVidia/cuda GPU compatibility. I read ARM are faster in phones and Mac is switching it's processor over to ARM from Intel. I'm not versed in the subtleties of how ARM processors effect the rest of the processing food chain. Could this move in any way revive CUDA/nVidia GPU life spans. I would think not but perhaps more under the hood savvy might be able to shed some light on this.
I do find it interesting that it seemed like Mac and nVidia were at odds of late. Does nVidia acquiring ARM mean they are on the mend and maybe my nVidia GPU Cuda cards won't have to sleep on the couch anymore? ;-)
