nVidia rumored to be announcing quad-core chips at MWC 2011

Saturday, 22 January 2011 15:00

Well we don't have the onslaught of dual-core Tegra 2 Android devices available just yet for purchase that we saw at CES 2011, apparently nVidia is gearing up to possibly announce the Tegra 3 chip which will be a quad-core chip.

Hexus is speculating that the Tegra 3 chip will be announced by nVidia during the MWC 2011 this February and while we are all salavating and waiting to get our hands on multiple Tegra 2 devices, now we have to ponder on whether to get that Tegra 2 device we want or should we wait and grab a Tegra 3 device.

Tegra 2’s successor “will be in production around the same time as my competitors’ first dual-cores will.” - Nvidia’s general manager, Mike Rayfield.

While the Tegra 3 is already in development and even if it announced at MWC 2011, we probably won't see publicly available devices with Tegra 3 until 2012.
