NVIDIA Intel IGP, 9 More DX10 Cards in the Works

Late yesterday, NVIDIA held its Q3′06 investor call. Although the discussion of the call was mainly financials and recaps of the GeForce 8800 launch, NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang let everyone know the company is ready to play hardball with AMD/ATI. Specifically, Huang stated that NVIDIA would unveil its first Intel-based integrated graphics chipset early next year.

Additionally, during the Q&A section of the investor call, Huang also alluded to the fact that the company would announce no less than nine DirectX 10 graphics cards based on the G80 family of GPUs. Two G80 products have already been announced, the GeForce 8800 GTX and GTS.
