Tegra K1 processor will bring PC-level gaming to your mobile device

Nvidia’s new Tegra 5 mobile processor, which will feature a whopping 192 cores, will bring PC-level gaming to your mobile device, the company claims. Even some of the top  PC and console games out there will be able to be played on mobile devices running on Nvidia’s new Tegra K1. The Tegra K1 is also designed for 4K TV sets, game consoles, cars, and much more.

Nvidia has announced its latest Tegra 5 mobile processor, which the company says will bring PC-like gaming experience to smartphones and tablets. Speaking at a company press event at CES in Las Vegas on Sunday, CEO Jen-Hsun Huang said the new Tegra K1 mobile processor — which features 192 cores — has “brought mobile computing to the same level as desktop computing.” Machines running on Tegra K1 will support Epic Games’ Unreal Engine 4, meaning that some of the world’s premier PC and console games will be capable of extending to mobile devices. Tim Sweeney, CEO of Epic Games, lauded Nvidia for making this technology available today, saying that he anticipated it would take at least another four years.
