Nvidia has its DirectX 11-deficiency notwithstanding had a lot to tell you about at CES this year. Graphics card manufacturer has, as expected, placed great emphasis on its Tegra 2 platform for handheld devices, and as we now know more about the circuit, it is not difficult to understand why. Nvidia Tegra 1 platform was powerful, Nvidia's Tegra 2 Platform will be 4 times as powerful as its predecessor and the System-on-a-chip solution has many saliva sparkling specifications.

Tegra 2 is that said a SoC, a large chip that contains everything needed to operate a system. Nvidia Tegra based 2 on eight separate processors, compared with 7 pieces of Tegra 1st But it's not just antalt is changed but also the process performance and architecture.

In addition to a video processor that handles playback and record 1080p material offers one of the audio processor, image processor and a custom made GPU as you do not want to reveal too much about the current situation.

Trump card is said to otherwise be very CPU-core (hands) which is based on the Cortex A9 architecture. You know the replacement for Cortex A8 (Snapdragon), who performs so well in the latest smart mobile phones. Cortex A9 in itself is 25% faster than its predecessor, clock per clock. But Nvidia has taken the opportunity to throw in two 1GHz Cortex A9 core of Tegra 2, which effectively doubles the theoretical performance.

And it will be mainly used in tablets as well as smart book computers. But we can not help but guess the smartphones which are much awaited to arrive with Nvidia's latest SoC, which could be something fully.
