NVIDIA Tegra K1 processor: The 64-bit processor Tegra K1 has amazed numerous influencers and the smartphone community at large when it first launched at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas last January. The NVIDIA Tegra K1 makes available the world’s fastest GPU to smartphones and outperforms its counterparts.

“For the first time, next-generation PC gaming will now be available on mobile platforms,” NVIDIA’s press notes states. In a benchmark test it showed that the Tegra K1 processor outperforms other chip sets like Intel’s Haswell, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800, and Apple’s A7 64-bit processor.

According to Extreme Tech and SlashGear, the performance of NVIDIA’s newest chipset beats Intel’s Haswell processor, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800 and Apple’s A7 chip set. The latest chipset from the company famous for its gaming roots may just be the fastest processor around for mobile devices.

The Lenovo 4K Think Vision, which has a 28-inch frame, an Android-powered premium smart display, is reportedly the first device to carry the new and powerful chipset. Extreme Tech notes that with this new product, “Nvidia might finally have something to crow about.”

In a report by Slashgear, it noted that the Tegra K1 out-performs Intel Haswell in early benchmarks. Based on benchmarks from MyDrivers, it showed an NVIDIA Tegra K1 reference tablet running at 60fps and 9% in a GFXBench (DX/GLBenchmark) 2.7 test at 1920 x 1080 T-Rex HD Offscreen C24A16. The machine slightly edges out a unit running Haswell Intel Core i5 processor with HD Graphics 4400.

In a Futuremark 3DMark test results from Tom’s Hardware, it showed that the NVIDIA Tegra K1 out-performed the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 and the NVIDIA Tegra 4 as well as the Apple A7. In the test, the new Tegra K1 was working on a Lenovo’s Think Vision 28, which is an all-in-one multi-function machine that resembles the Lenovo 4K Display. Slashgear noted that the latter was voted by their site as the best of CES 2014 in the monitor department.

The Tegra K1 is NVIDIA’s first 64-bit processor and has 192-cores for mobile devices. The unit is expected to power the next generation of mobile devices that sports the fastest processors available.
