nVidia's Superchip compared to Core2duo !

nVidia has taken the veil off of its supersecret prjoect, "Kal-El".
Targeting tablets and netbooks this is a quadcore SoC (system on a chip), each core running @ 1.5Ghz. Kal-El will also reportedly sport a 12-core GPU  promising  up to 12 hours of HD playback, so the new processor should be more efficient than Tegra 2. Better battery life is the need of the hour, longer lasting operation without a recharge, a step in the right direction



If  you take a look at the nVidia roadmap, you can clearly see that things will be getting really crazy in time to come, with announcements like wayne and stark in the pipeline. . . we need better operating systems to handle such power. Android 3.0 honeycomb is set to have multiprocessor support.



Here’s an official video by NVIDIA of the new Kal-El’s performance.
Keep in mind that Kal-El is meant for mobile computing, and here it is compared with an Intel t7200 laptop processor
