Fusion v2...

In a stunning move, nVidia yesterday announced a new graphic chip GeForce 8800 GTX...(ok, not quite a stunning move, I'm just being dramatic...)
Nvidia usually focuses on giving customers crystal-clear images on their computer screens. But Wednesday, the chip maker launched a new chip that does more: It not only runs the computer's display but also does some of the work of the microprocessor ``brain'' inside a personal computer.

Previously, AMD announced that it will put GPU inside CPU,; now, nVidia will put CPU inside GPU(in a manner of speak). As I said before, CPU and GPU will merge - regardless whether GPU in CPU or CPU in GPU. And while we have dual core. quad core CPUs, why not dual/quad core GPUs - there will be no need for SLI anymore. Or buy you mixed CPU/GPU core combo. "Would you like to super size you MPU combo to go sir? It's only $400 more to get dual CPU, dual GPU, a real value deal."
