Big Country Technology Starts with Mobile Phones - Chapter 198 NVIDIA is panicking?
As soon as the news came out, not only Chinese consumers were paying attention, but consumers all over the world were paying attention. Spark is a game laptop that was recently deified after its death. It is very popular. Now it is actually going to make a comeback?
The renderings on the poster have not been released, only the outline, which is a bit overshadowed. After all, the appearance of Starfire-Phantom Flame has been exposed for a long time, and it is impossible to change the mold in a short time.
Even Nebula Technology, known as the “mold replacement” king, is no exception. Liu Dalang believes that it is basically enough to replace molds every one to two years, and some of the remaining molds can be handed over to other manufacturers to shine again.
Especially manufacturers that have OEM cooperation with Nebula Technology. They have been coveting Nebula molds for a long time. The thin and light mold set of Xingyu-Phantom is a model in the industry. It was not until this year that they got the right to use it.
Compared with Xingyu’s starting price of 6,000+, some manufacturers specializing in cost-effectiveness can even use this set of molds to push the price to around 4,000, which is more than 2,000 cheaper. Of course, the product quality and ecology are definitely not the same as those of Nebula. Fabi.
But as long as the price/performance ratio is high enough and the product looks pretty good, it will naturally attract a large number of consumers to buy it. To be honest, the price difference of 2,000 is enough to buy a Xiaomi mobile phone, and computers are different.
Not all consumers can use such high performance, such good graphics cards, such complete functions, or even such good hardware. Each consumer’s needs are different, and the natural choice will be different.
In addition to the manufacturers that are handed over to Nebulas Technology as OEMs, there are also some manufacturers that choose to continue to cooperate with the original foundries, but these foundries also have molds authorized by Nebulas Technology, and the difference is very simple.
The yield rate of Nebula Technology’s OEM is very high, almost 100%. Other foundries are not good, but the cost of Nebula Technology’s OEM is also higher. How to choose depends on the shipment volume of these manufacturers.
If the shipment volume is high, the high yield rate will naturally be more advantageous. In addition, Nebula Technology OEM is also a good publicity point. After all, the yield rate is too high. Of course, there are also some manufacturers obsessed with saving costs…
That’s another story.
However, in order to distinguish the difference between A card and N card, Spark-Phantom Flame will have a new color scheme this time, and the details of the fuselage will also be different. The AMD logo is still very conspicuous, and you can tell the difference if you look carefully.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, the cooperation between Nebula Technology and AMD is very similar to that of Nvidia. They first took over their products and then carried out reasonable transformations in their own way.
The difference is that AMD is also in a challenger position, surrounded by Intel and NVIDIA, and is in urgent need of a breakthrough point. The current market is different from the state where a hundred flowers were blooming five years ago.
Nvidia’s monopoly trend is becoming more and more obvious. This does not mean that AMD is more conscientious, but that they are encountering increasing resistance. There are fewer and fewer computer manufacturers using their graphics cards in notebooks. There is no way.
Sometimes these computer manufacturers have no choice, or even if they choose, they can only deliberately produce some products that are different and rely on AMD? Sorry, in the next period of time, NVIDIA’s products will be sold out!
This is very similar to the situation of mobile phone manufacturers. Sometimes it’s not that they want to choose Qualcomm Fire Dragon and some obviously different chips, but that they really have no choice. The last one who was cast, Meizu, hasn’t turned around yet.
Among all Chinese manufacturers, only Nebula Technology dares to be so tough. Not to mention AMD taking the initiative to cooperate. Even if AMD doesn’t come, they still have their own solutions, but they just need to wait patiently for a while~
When AMD took the initiative to help with publicity, Nvidia executives were actually a little panicked. Originally, their relationship with Nebulas Technology was not bad. After all, Nebula Technology had purchased many high-performance chips from them.
But in order to ensure their status, they still chose to cheat Nebula Technology. Talking about emotions will not work, making money is the way to go. The most important thing is that they do not think that AMD’s graphics cards can beat their products.
