It is only speculations at this point.

BOSTON, Oct 4 (Reuters) - Nvidia Corp. (NVDA.O: Quote, Profile, Research) shares climbed more than 8 percent on Wednesday amid speculation the graphics chipmaker could be acquired by Intel Corp. (INTC.O: Quote, Profile, Research), traders said.

A spokeswoman for Intel, the world's No. 1 chipmaker, declined comment, saying her company doesn't comment on market speculation. A spokeswoman for Nvidia could not be reached.

It shall happen! Squirrely: Now come on y'all. We can't waste time arguing. There could still be survivors out there. We need to hunt them down, and kill them. Beary: How about we kill them, and then rape their bodies so we can use their blood as lubricant.

Who cares? As long as we will be getting our chips, we'll be happy.

good move for intel and gaming in general if they buy nvidia, it means less pcs with shitty intel intergrated crap graphics that cant even run games if they use nvidia onboard instead

thats he reason right there that PC games are fucked right now.
well games that are on consoles as well at least.
companies are afraid to limit thier customer base so they make the crappy versions for pc becuase there are more ppl who have integrated vido that cant run games at high settings etc, rather than ppl who have super rigs.
