Your point?


By hobby industry do you mean Rasberry Pi?

Ding ding ding!  Maker Space.  Cottage industries.  Hobbyists.  I pretty well spelled it out.  And Arduino.  And all of the Arduino and Pi knock-offs. And all of the DIY consoles.  And all of the retro computer clones. And all of the individual products people design and assemble in their basement and sell online.

To be quite frank, in terms of ARM systems, nVidia is a new name or just way lesser known.  All companies got help from other companies and industries to achieve their dominance, customers usually don't know what they want until you show them.  I'm saying the probability of the hobby ARM market vanishing because of the ARM purchase is going to be close to zero for a while.

Once Nvidia starts adding SoCs to their boards, graphics cards, CPUs, RAM and motherboards will cease to exist as you know them.
x86 Ecosystem, x86 infrastructure and the stubborn conservative tendency to just keep doing what works (along with all the tactics that Intel has mustered against AMD) is against nVidia. 


However, their work with Nintendo's Switch along with the ARM purchase is literally a threat to AMD's console dominance.

For Intel processors, 0.122 x TDP = Continuous Amps at 12v [source].

Not so official after all.

NVIDIA will purchase Arm -- only if China lets it (and US and UK and EU)
https://finance.yahoo.com...y-china-070528218.html

Apparently there were clauses in the deal to invalidate the sale pending regulator approval. It's expected to take over a year before the acquisition either becomes official or invalidated.

China approving the deal is very unlikely for the reasons the article explains.
