This would be funny if it happened to Nvidia.

It kinda, has, with Fermi, lol. The GTX 480 was... something.

Same reason too. They pushed the voltage too hard, to the point of stupidity.

Nvidia does not compete in this market though, as much as they'd like to. They do not make x86 CPUs, and frankly Intel is hard to displace since they have their own fab capacity. AMD can't take the market themselves because there simply isn't enough TSMC/Samsung to go around.

There's also Intel holding the x86 patent and AMD holding the x64 patent. Those two aren't going anywhere yet.

Actually, looks lhe base patents have expired. All the extentions, SSE, AVX are still in effect though
