We’re here at NVIDIA’s GPU technology conference here in San Jose, California and CEO Jen-Hsun Huang just let loose that his company plans to put Kepler in the cloud. To make it happen, the company has created a virtualized Kepler GPU, meaning no physical connections are needed to render and stream graphics to remote locations. So, as Citrix brought CPU virtualization to put your work desktop on the device of your choosing, NVIDIA has put the power of Kepler into everything from iPads to netbooks and mobile phones

If you’ve been following AMD’s game plan over the last couple of years, then you probably won’t be totally shocked by what follows. That said, reviewers’ verdicts of the new high-end Trinity laptop APU , the 2.3GHz quad-core A10-4600M, do include some dizzying highs and despairing lows, which are still kinda surprising in their own way. 
This surprise package has apparently escaped not only MSI’s proof-readers, but also NVIDIA’s strictly-controlled release schedule. If it’s legit, it hints at more affordable Kepler cards just around the corner — potentially around $150 less than a GTX 680 , if previous GeForce generations are anything to go by
Would you look at that? NVIDIA hinted it would be coming today, and it looks like the tease is living up to the hype. The company stormed into the weekend at its Shanghai Game Festival by unleashing its latest offering, the GeForce GTX 690 — and oh yeah, it’s packing two 28nm Kepler GPUs! Trumping the recently released GTX 680 as the “worlds fastest graphics card,” it’s loaded with a whopping 3,072 Cuda cores. 
AMD kicked off 2012 by refreshing its desktop graphics, and now it’s back, giving its mobile GPUs the same treatment. The company just announced its third generation of DirectX 11 mobile chips, the Radeon HD 7000 family. All told, the collection includes three 28nm GPUs: the high-end 7900M, the mainstream 7800M and, last but not least, the 7700M, a darling little chip intended for AMD’s thin and light Ultrabook competitors 
Granted, we hope to see a new Xbox before 2014 , but if NVIDIA has its way, mobile devices will have enough graphical prowess to surpass the current generation of gaming consoles by that time. The company brought the smackdown today with a chart that combines both historical and projected data, and while we don’t recall NVIDIA exiting the desktop market in 2010, it reinforces the idea that smartphones and tablets of the future may stand as thoroughly enviable gaming devices — provided that developers are willing to create enough visuals to make these things sing.

NVIDIA’s next-gen GPUs sure took their sweet time arriving, but the first of the Kepler crew is finally available in stores and its 28nm silicon is just itching to show off what it can do. You may be wondering what the 2GB GeForce GTX 680 brings to the gaming table, and whether it’ll put an end to AMD’s free run at the top of the food chain
Acer unveiled several new Ultrabooks at CeBIT last week (we spent time with the V5 and V3 ) but its M3 may be the most special one of all. 
If you thought we were done with the numbers game, think again. NVIDIA has just pushed out its figures for Q4 of FY 2012 and things are looking good.
