Arm is reportedly expanding into the dedicated GPU (dGPU) market. The company, known for its work in mobile processors, is now developing a new graphics processor unit (GPU) at its Ra’anana development center in Israel. This move puts Arm in direct competition with established players like Nvidia and Intel. In this article, we will discuss everything we know about the latest Arm dGPU in detail.
Arm dGPU Overview
Who’s in the team?
A team of about 100 engineers is leading this project. These experts are part of Arm’s global graphics processing group. Their efforts focus on creating a GPU for the video game market, though future applications in AI are possible.
Any different approach?
Arm’s approach differs from traditional chipmakers. Instead of manufacturing its own processors, Arm develops intellectual property and chip development software. Companies like Qualcomm, MediaTek, and Apple use this technology in their products. While Arm has provided technology for various markets, this new development marks its first significant step into high-performance GPUs.
Collaboration and Market Context
The new GPU aims to focus on gaming performance, a market where Arm’s technology is already present in mobile devices.. Arm’s Ra’anana office also works with local startups, including those in the AI sector which could help Arm expand its reach beyond gaming.
